Your rank in class for F2006 is available. The text file link is sorted from highest exam average to lowest. The exam average is (final+final+exam1+exam2+exam3)/5. Find your record by knowing your exam scores on exam 1. Search for your approximate exam average over the three midterms and final exam, and if you cannot find your record, then search for the score on exam 1 problem 1 that matches your record, e.g., "Ex1-1=74" is such a string.
About four edits to the rank file have been made since it was first created. Likely, your rank in class has gone up or down.
The computed average has been corrected from the December 15 posting, which computed (final + final +examave)/3 instead of (final+final+exam1+exam2+exam3)/5.
All dailies are now included in the record. This includes extra credit from December 7. The number of dailies used is 112, for computing averages. The most you can receive is 100, so a score of 107.3 is truncated to 100.
Please do not send email about dailies, unless the effect is to change your grade.
Your rank in class is fixed by exams and unaffected by dailies. Please know that the formula "lettergrade = 0.3*dailies+0.7*exams" absorbs small changes in the dailies and can effect at most a + or - change in the letter grade.
Grades for F2006 posted Sat Dec 23 7am MST 2006.
