(90-92) Good Work: B+ = 3.33 (87-89), B = 3.0 pts. (83-86), B- = 2.67 (80-82) Satisfactory work: C+ = 2.33 pts (77-79) C = 2.0 pts. ( 73-76), C-: 70-72 Passing, but less than satisfactory work: D+ = 1.33 pts. (67-69), D = 1.0 pts ( 63-66) Unsatisfactory work: F = 0.0 pts (< 63) NOTE: Instructors can determine the components of evaluations. Below is just an example.
