IB 132 midterm grades!!

<p>IB132 mt 1 grades are up. Does anybody know what the mean was? Apparently we should be getting > 83% on the mt1 to get an A in the class.</p>

<p>Can anyone confirm that?</p>

<p>yes the announcement on Bspace from Dr. Lehamn said that everyone did poorer then expected so a 7% plus to everyone's grade AND that does mean an A is 83 or above</p>

<p>HELP - I do not want to suffer another one of their exams - anyone got some previous ones from past years we can work from?</p>

<p>Seriously dude....</p>

<p>A curve of 83/100 to get an A seems really harsh!! 7 of my friends are taking the class and out of the 8 of us combined only 1 got > 83. Many of my friends got in the 60's!! Based on the pickaprof dist. this seems odd.</p>

<p>its a curve UP as I see it....so 7% is added to the grade</p>

<p>dudde liquidmetal, I feel you. I got a 80. So <em>ed, and pickaprof says 55-60% get A's. *</em>?!</p>

<p>FYI, last spring, the course grade average was 81% (absolute scale), which is a B+</p>

<p>So what was considered an A last spring for IB 132??
The profs keep threatening that they are not going to curve.
Also, is the book helpful or should I just read and memorize
the lecture notes for MT2??
I am starting to freak out.</p>
