Can anyone who’s taken this course please tell me if it’s typically curved? And please give an example of what the curve is typically like.
The curve is harsh like in any other introductory science class at Penn. The average is placed around a B/B-/C+ which is the case for all introductory physics, chemistry, bio, math and engineering classes.
I have a 94, and my friend has a 93.44. Do you think these scores will get us As? Class average is probably around a 78/80 @Penn95
It depends on the standard deviation i guess. I would say almost definitely an A-, maybe an A.
We both got an A+. A 94 was over 1.5 standard deviations above the average.
