I was wondering what the grading system was like at other schools. I am in the 2nd level of an LVN program waiting anxiously for the results of my finals. All of our finals are 50% of our grade, what is the percentage of your finals?

At our school the final is weighted equally, but you cannot take it if your overall average is not 78% or greater going into the final, and you must score 78% or higher on the final or you automatically fail the course.

YIKES! My midterm and final were 10% each of our grade. The other exams were 8%. We had 9 exams and the daily grade which ended up being 80%.

This next semester all exams will be 15% each. The first semester I did really well, this semester, I avg. ended up being 78. You know someone was looking after me.

I'm now entering my last semester. :balloons::balloons::balloons:
