<p>What are the averages on midterms and finals in classes like multivariable, linear algebra, physics for engineers, etc. I'll probably be a physics majors at the U.</p>
<p>From what I hear, it depends on the professor. Usually in the physics department it’s a bell curve. On the exams the average score is 60-75 and the final averaged 45 last year. Do one standard deviation on whatever the average is in physics and you’ll get an A.</p>
<p>From what I experienced, lower division math classes don’t have curves unless the class grades were extremely low</p>
<p>That’s correct. 1271/1371 is “curved” to around 90% for an A and 80% for a B. But for those classes you really don’t need a curve at all.</p>
<p>S2 just finished a physics 3 (engineering) midterm. The class average was 66 out of 100</p>
<p>In my physics class, a 55% is a C…</p>
<p>thank you for the replies</p>
