Toxicology Final Exam and Grades
This is vet school for you (actually, it's a kind of extreme example of what has become more common since our first term when the class averages hovered around 90%). I know these stats pale in comparison to engineering classes, but anyway...
Modified quote from Dr. Cope:
Dear Class
The summary stats for the final exam are roughly as follows:
Written Exam mean = 61/100 SD = 11
Practical Exam mean = 21/30 SD = 4
The overall summary stats for the course are roughly as follows:
Mean = 78%, SD = 4%
The grade cutoffs for the course are as follows:
A≥ 85%... B- ≥ 60-less than 70
The total number of people for each grade are roughly as follows:
A = 3, A- = 18, B+ = 22, B = 5, Incomplete = 1

So what are you actually saying? That this is poor grades for everyone except engineers, or that these are great grades?
I was trying (in whatever foggy state of mind I may have been experiencing :) ) to say that the averages were shockingly low for biology-type classes. Maybe engineering classes aren't always all that bad... but I heard once of some multiple choice engineering test where a 25% wasn't all that bad, and again of some other test (taken by an engineering major - not sure what the test was in) where something like a 56% was okay.
