How to figure out what you need to make on the final exam in order to make a certain grade you must:

1. Multiply your 3rd nine weeks grade by 2.

2. Multiply your 4th nine weeks grade by 2

3. Add those two number together (steps one and two).

4. Subtract that answer from the following numbers:

A = 448

B = 398

C = 373

D = 348

5. The number that you come up with by subtracting # 3 from # 4 is the grade you need to make on the final exam to maintain whatever grade you want.

Example:

3rd nine weeks grade = 90

4th nine weeks grade = 63

90 x 2 = 180

63 x 2 = 126

126 + 180 = 306.

In order to make an A in class:

448 - 306 = 142. It is not possible to make a 142 on the final so you can not make an A in this class for the semester.

In order to make a B in class:

398 - 306 = 92. You must make a 92 on the final exam to make a B in this class for the semester.

In order to make a C in class:

373 - 306 = 67. You must make a 67 on the final exam to make a C in this class for the semester.

In order to make a D in class:

348 - 306 = 42. You must make a 42 on the final exam to make a D in this class for the semester.
