Final Grade Calculation and Passing a Class based on Points
You can use the GRADE CALCULATION excel sheet attached below, so that the points are calculated for you. You can easily find out if you pass and what grade you will earn if you use this excel sheet.
Final Grade: Add grade value for each grading period and divide by 4
Grade Values are: A=4, B=3, C=2, D= 1, F= 0
Example: ABCB 4 + 3+ 2 + 3= 12 12/4=3 final grade: B
Points: Must receive a total of 10 points to pass an annual course; 5 points needed to pass a semester course
Multiply grade point value by 2.5 for 1,2,3,4 quarter. (A=10, B=7.5, C=5, D= 2.5, F= 0)
**5 POINT RULE- Must receive at least 5 points in the 3rd and 4th quarter in order to pass a course
Example: BCCA 7.5+5+5+10=27.5 PASS
ABDF 10+7.5+2.5+0=20 FAIL
CCDD 5+5+2.5+2.5=15 PASS
