A Note To My Students: This course utilizes two grade scales, the traditional grade scale based on percentages of the total points, and a grade scale based on percentages of the highest student. It is NOT based on a curve where there must be a given number of A's, B's, C's, D's and F's. The left percentage for each student reflects the traditional grade scale, while the right percentage reflects the grade scale based on the highest student. You will receive the higher of the two grade scales for your final grade in the course. Grade scales based on the highest student are often used in difficult courses where students seldom come close to the maximum possible points, and the traditional grade scale is much too stringent with few or no A's. In Biology 100, the grade scale based on the highest student generally has more A's, B's and C's than the traditional grade scale. Since some students still do better with the traditional grade scale, I utilize both grade scales in my courses. WPA

Occasionally I assign extra credit points for keying out unknowns, mounting plant specimems and field trips. These assignments do not count against anyone if they are not completed. They are truly extra credit points. For percentages based on the total points, the total possible points (excluding extra credit) is divided into individual totals for each student. For percentages based on the highest student, the total points acheived by the top student (excluding extra credit) is divided into individual totals for each student. If the highest student also does the extra credit assignments, his/her percentage may be over 100. Again, the grade scale is based on the total possible points or the total points of the highest student excluding extra credit, so students are not penalized if they don't submit the extra credit assignments.
