Physics 8a grade

<p>How is physics 8a graded, anyone know? Thanks</p>

<p>if you're in falcone's lecture, which i'm enrolled in, it's not curved. if you think you didn't do too well on today's midterm, don't worry because it's only 15% of our grade anyway.</p>

<p>not to be a smarta$$, but i thought his midterm was a little on the easy side (not complaining at all). i heard bad things about kolomensky's midterm, which was supposedly much harder than ours.</p>

<p>Just wonder if anyone know what percent is an A to A+ last year, thnx</p>

<p>yeah I had kolomensky, there was material on there that wasn't even on the book. It was in the lecture, and required an esoteric equation he wrote on the board almost as a sidenote. shucks.</p>

<p>lol 45 people in our class got a 100, out of 290ish people... i took a look at kolomensky's midterm, and it was a little harder, but not as horrible as people had said.</p>

<p>45 people did not get 100% on your midterm, about 6-8 did (or so).</p>

<p>the email response from kolomensky:</p>

<hr>

<p>The grade boundaries are 85-100=A, 70-84=B, 50-69=C, 25-49=D, and 20% of each band on low and high side for +/- grades.</p>

<p>Yury</p>

<p>yeah my bad i misread the scores. apparently the score at the bottom that read "100" was actually "90-100". So 45 people got in that range, which seems more realistic.</p>

<p>the grading scheme for falcone's class is same as above</p>

<p>I want to take Physics with Falcone. Such a cool name. Like the Batman villain. You can just hiss it..."Faalconeee."</p>
