MyLab Math (MLM) Grade Example

MLM grade calculation is based on the Weighted Average method.
Each section has equal weights.
This is how your MLM grades are calculated.

(1.) The MyLab Math (MLM) has 13 chapters: Chapters 0, 1, 2, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16.

(2.) The 13 chapters has 45 main sections.
These are Sections: 0.1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 5.4, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6, 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.6, 9.7, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 11.1, 11.2, 11.3, 11.4, 12.1, 12.3, 12.4, 12.6, 12.8, 12.9, 13.1, 13.2, 13.3, 13.4, 14.7, 15.1, 15.2, 15.3, 15.4, 16.1, 16.2, 16.3, 16.4
Because I do not want to overwhelm you with many questions per section, each section is further divided into more sections.
Hence, the 45 sections are further divided into 60 sections.
So, we are dealing with 60 sections. Please see them in the calculator.

(3.) 60 sections count for 100% on MLM
This implies that each section count for

$ \dfrac{100}{60} = 1.666666667\% \\[5ex] $ This is what should be entered in the Weight section of the calculator.

(4.) Let us do an example.
Assume Student A made a:
98% on Section 0.1
90% on Section 1.1
86% on Section 1.2
Student A is aware that 100% can be made on all three sections by doing similar questions of the questions got incorrectly.
However, Student A is content with the grades made so far and wants to find the current grade.
What is the current grade for Student A?

Student A's current grade
MLM Section Weight (%) Your Score (%) Weighted Score
(Weight * Your Score)
Section 0.1 1.666666667 98 163.3333333
Section 1.1 1.666666667 90 150
Section 1.2 1.666666667 86 143.3333333
$\Sigma Weights = 5$ $\Sigma Weighted\;\;Scores = 456.6666666$
$ Current\;\;Grade = \dfrac{\Sigma Weighted\;\;Scores}{\Sigma Weights} = \dfrac{456.6666666}{5} = 91.33333332 \approx 91\% $

Student A's current MLM grade based on these three sections is 91%.

Final Grade Example

Final grade calculation is also based on the Weighted Average method.
Howevever, each assessment does not have has equal weight.
This is how your final grade is calculated.

Final Grade Example
Assessments Weight (%) Your Score (%) Weighted Score
(Weight * Your Score)
MyLab Math 60 90 5400
DB 1 2 95 190
DB 2 2 90 180
DB 3 2 80 160
DB 4 2 85 170
DB 5 2 100 200
DB 6 2 70 140
DB 7 2 75 150
DB 8 2 84 168
DB 9 2 82 164
DB 10 2 93 186
DB 11 2 97 194
DB 12 2 81 162
DB 13 2 88 176
DB 14 2 96 192
DB 15 2 98 196
Project 10 100 1000
$\Sigma Weights = 100$ $\Sigma Weighted\;\;Scores = 9028$
$ Current\;\;Grade = \dfrac{\Sigma Weighted\;\;Scores}{\Sigma Weights} = \dfrac{9028}{100} = 90.28 \approx 90\% $

Please NOTE:
(1.) This is the grade you will see in the Canvas gradebook.
(2.) You must not complete all fields. You can calculate your current grade at any time during the course based on the assessments you have done. Then, you can verify your calculations with the calculator.
(3.) The final grade is rounded to the nearest integer only one time.
A grade of 79.5000111% is rounded to an 80% which is a B while a grade of 79.499999 is rounded to a 79% which is a C.
(4.) At least a final grade of 70% (C) is required to pass the course.
(5.) There is no extra credit or bonus point or curving grades for the course.
