Econ 1BB3 Marks up!
Looks like she posted the marks for the final exam up on avenue... average ridiculously low though :S. Anyone know if there's a likely chance she'll adjust the marks?

Well, the test averages were high. But still, im surprised she didn't curve the exam grades a bit. Or maybe she did.

She "curved" - actually was a straight up linear adjustment to the second midterm last term.

Fair enough. Do you think she'll take into consideration that she removed the Aplia assignments though?

It's a 75.6 then you see how that translates into the 12 point scale, only whole numbers are given out for a course grade.
