The last of the grades are going in tonight (the next hour). Your attendance grade (-5 points off the final percentage) and your PIR grade (-5 for not attending) is NOT factored into that grade. I will do that by hand.

The final curve was +5 points (which is also not factored in to your grade. So add five point to whatever you see).

It’s beneficial to note (and as stated in the syllabus), you are judged on many aspects of this class. I do not round up or give extra points; however, if you have gone beyond the minimum requirements for the class (e.g. turned in all your work, showed up to every class and attended at least 1 PIR), I oftentimes use that to determine the extra push.

If you didn’t do any of these things, please don’t bother asking if I will bump your grade. I will not. I will also, as I stated the first week of class, not negotiate your grade. Particularly if you are ONLY coming to me at the end in order to correct 17 weeks of mis-steps.
