calculating grade for study.com course - Omece - 03-17-2023 So I just completed a networking course and I want to verify I passed. I know they are going to email me my final grade but I wouldn't mind some peace of mind while I wait. I just want to make sure I am calculating this correctly. In the case of this course there were no assignments. Just quizzes and final so... Quizzes = 100 Final = 200 Total = 300 you need at least a 210 to pass in my case I got: Quizzes = 99 Final = 69 {Overall quiz grade} + {Final exam grade *2} 99 + (69 *2) 99 + 138 = 237 So if I did that correctly I passed... Barely but a win is a win. Can anyone confirm the above is accurate? Thank you in advance!

Yes, that's correct. Great job! You passed the course with flying colors (in other words, points to spare)... RE: calculating grade for study.com course - BitWiseGuy - 03-17-2023 As bjcheung77 said, you passed! Congrats! For reference, I just barely passed Discrete Math I with 211 points... Passing by even just one point is still a pass! I was SOOO happy to not have to do that class again. RE: calculating grade for study.com course - Omece - 03-17-2023 Awesome! thank you both for verifying RE: calculating grade for study.com course - gams007 - 03-18-2023 (03-17-2023, 06:51 PM)BitWiseGuy Wrote: As bjcheung77 said, you passed! Congrats! I also pass the Discrete Math also with 211 points last year, and it was very hard to pass but, like they say a win is a win. Congratulations. RE: calculating grade for study.com course - goodstudents - 03-19-2024 I highly recommend using a Grade Calculator. RE: calculating grade for study.com course - LevelUP - 03-20-2024 You need 210 points to pass. So, if you get 100 points on the quizzes, then you need a 110/200 score on the final to pass, which is 55%. The Discrete Math course people mentioned it is a mile wide and an inch deep. The final doesn't involve much math, but you need to know a lot of concepts. Usually, your final score will be within 10% of your practice final exam score. So if you can score 70% on the practice final, you should be ready to take the final exam.

Study.com doesn't really require one, it's not for GPA purposes as they're pass/fail.
