Laboratory and assignment points are worth approximately 360 points and discussions 225 points to obtain the total points possible for the course (approximately 1000). There is a three-day grace period to make up any missed exam or assignment with a 10% deduction for each day it is late. Any missed exam/work not made up within the allotted time will be given a zero. It is the responsibility of the student to schedule make-up work within an acceptable period of time due to extenuating circumstances. Final letter grades are assigned based on the following criteria: A = 89.5-100% of the total points B = 79.5 - <89.5% of the total points C = 69.5 - <79.5% of the total points D = 59.5 - <69.5% of the total points F = <59.5% of the total points
