Math 53 grading question

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I was looking at the syllabus notes and it says 10% hws and quizzes, 25% each for two midterms and 40% for the final.</p>

<p>However, I distinctly remember Sethian saying that if our Finals score is better than the score from the midterms/final, then it could account for 90% of the grade.</p>

<p>Which version is true?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Please see my comments in [this</a> thread](<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-california-berkeley/631939-difficulty-schedule.html#post1061747819]this”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-california-berkeley/631939-difficulty-schedule.html#post1061747819).</p>

<p>Thanks Student. The reason I asked was that I vaguely remember him saying something along those lines in one of the first lectures, but can’t recall the specifics (my other classmates have only a vague recollection too).</p>
