Grade thresholds used for Bio301D (Fall 2011)

Find the highest number in the following list that lies below your total (your ‘total’ is the sum of your 3 best exams, 3 best homeworks, and survey point).  The grade you should have is the grade associated with that number (provided I haven’t done something stupid).  Thus, if you had 359.0, you have A-; if you have 358.0, you have B+.  The ‘-‘ thresholds are close to those published earlier, but the A, B, and C thresholds are considerably more generous.
