Note that the above distribution does not take into account the promise to drop the two lowest homework scores and count only the top 10 out of 12 homework assignments!

Two grade scales are given above, one is the harshest I would consider applying to this course, one is the most lenient I would consider applying. Neither is truly relevant since the final exam is not included in the grades reported here!
