My first grade is a decidedly median B+ in Contracts.

The test I thought I did the best in.

No joke: after I got my grades I had to look up our grading scale because I'd forgotten almost everything about it.

Fucking agreed.

Are Michigan grades coming out today? Good luck Michigan people!

UTexas all grades reporting. Beyond happy, and owe a LOT to TLS.

Civ Pro: B
Contracts: A
Property: A
LRW: A

Out of curiosity, anyone else's Civ Pro exam 100% multiple choice and open book? Ours was 40 questions total, 4 hr exam, and last year's class tells me 19/40 earned an A. I would love to see the raw data from that exam because I doubt there's any statistically significant difference between an A- and a B-.

Time for some Scotch!

Perhaps everyone should have had a useful sticky with grade ranges? That's all I accomplished in Property today.

What the fuck kind of curve exists where 47.5% of the class gets an A?

^^ guessing you needed to get 19/40 MC questions correct to get an A.

BU's grades all came out this afternoon, too. What is frustrating is we have no idea how we rank (top 10%, 25%, etc.) They won't tell us until the end of 1L. It's hard to figure out whether to celebrate or be sad. :-)

Our deadline is next Friday. They trickle out though, but my first grade came out today. Every other section has two grades at this point I believe.

I think it's a good thing. It means we don't have to worry about class rank cut-offs for summer employment. And more time to improve next semester!

Congrats! I should note that not all Texas grades are in - apparently the word on the street is profs get a 2-week extension if they ask. Looks like my small section prof did that.

Thanks! And sorry about that, you'd think a prof with only ~23 students could get 'em done in 5 weeks. Good luck.

Page 36 of your Student Handbook has a rough answer. :wink:

How lame that you have an option for A+/4.3 on a 3.3 curve... :twisted:
