Academic Information -
Semester Examinations

The semester final grade is the grade that appears
on transcripts and is the only grade reported to colleges and employers.
This is the only "permanent" grade recorded for the course.
The semester final
grade is obtained from the two-nine‑week grades and the semester final
exam grade. The semester
examination grade weighs 1/5 of the semester final grade.
The nine‑week grades weigh 2/5 each and have twice the value of
the semester examination grade. The determination of the semester final
grade can be simplified by restating the formula as follows:
