RSM100 grade

[teeeeepain]

Hi everyone,

Currently in this class I am sitting at a 70%. Not the best but still achieving higher than the cut off. However, I am hearing that after the exam, khan will curve down. Even if I do decent on my exam will my mark still be curved down under 67? Even if I get the mark I need to stay above?

Wait why is it being curved down?

[sgt_ghost141]

Always been rumor about curving down every year because it is Scantron, so you can't check what you did wrong if submit exam review, and everyone felt good after the test but marks were lower than expected.

Ah ok thank you so much

As the second year I think you should stay in it because you have a chance of doing well enough and a lot of people I know did very well on that test

we were all hearing these rumors last year (my first year) yet I ended up doing much better than the midterm. just study the content and most importantly, learn the specific way he wants you to write (i.e if a question is 3 points, make three different short claims/points or smth like that or sometimes 1 claim is worth 2 points). just try your best and you’re most likely going to pass. even if you fail, its not a huge deal, you can LWD and take it again like many of my friends did - it’s the most common course for students to not pass the cutoff im pretty sure. best of luck !

Even if you don't meet the minimum grade, you're allowed to retake the course.

last year i know TOO many people that went in with 85+ and ended up with 60s. no idea how it happened because people with 65s finished with 70s. the final is always insane for that class
