YSaC, Vol. 1646: “Me fail business? That’s unpossible!”
Happy New Year, everyone! New Years Day is about self-reflection, and carefully considering how you will make yourself a better person in 2014. It’s about making a fresh start, and about being optimistic about the year ahead. It’s about the joy and wonder we can each find in our fellow man. It’s …
who can tell that what’s my GPA score?
I do not know my GPA ? who can tell me ? need apply for school
Oh, never mind. It’s all about the Sparkys, just like every year.
Happy New Year! Thanks, Buff!
* To be fair, there is no GPA listed here, and this appears to be a transcript from a British university where they don’t calculate GPAs. But since Sparky here had 100% attendance in his Business program, one might assume that he would (a) know that and (b) be able to conjugate English verbs. Also, if Sparky has completed a Masters degree, and is applying for school, that means … no, it’s just too horrible to think about.
Happy New Year to everyone but those of you without small children who get to sleep in! Pass with Credit is the name of my all teacher The Kinks cover band.
Rounded off, the calculated GPA is 63, known in the US as Cum Lousy.
Mine is bigger.
Sparky need apply for MacDonalds: Hamburger Management, or need learn eAML2.
That’s not the GPA, that’s the average.
Going from the “% Mark” column, looks to be a 60% sort of grade.
Which is meaningless without knowing percentage of what.
From the “Credit Points Clarification” table, I’m gathering this is one of the “curved” grade schemes much enamored of preparatory schools in too much of the north American educational universe. So, somewhere about 70-75 is an “A.” Which would make a “B” 60-69; that ‘passing grade’ “C” about 50-59. The “D” down around 40-49; and a Fail down in the 30s.
Applying that data, the catulator gives me the exact value for Spark’s GPA as Elebenty.salmon snack
Sparky has 36 credits multiplied by his percentage marks for a total of 2293 credit points. Using the Credit Points Clarification Table, the maximum possible would have been 3600 credit points, or a possible 100 in each class. If you assume the table categories are equivalent to letter grades of A to F and divide the totals by 36, then an “A” grade is a mark of 81 to 100; B = 75 to <81; C = 60 to <75; D = 55 to <60; and F = <55.
That's not a curve; it's a badly skewed roller coaster.
The answer is 42.
Okay, smarty-pants with all the answers. I hope you brought enough snark for everyone!
No snark but I do have fruitcakes. I was going to carve them into mini-statues of Sparky and glitz them up a bit to sell on CL but Santa didn’t bring me a bedazzler. I’ll pile them up in the corner if anybody wants one.
I’ve been in the corner with a fruitcake before. Very Scary.
Windy, I’ve asked you before to stop calling me that…
Sorry! What was the new name we agreed on? Cupcake?
Well there, Gordon Gecko wanna – be, I can see that there is no math for dummies on your report card. So I’ll help you out with your cat math. The answer is elebenty twelve point sixty five. Now, you remember thirds when you’re building a ponzy scheme too defraud the sheeple. I want a cut of the action and a time share in Boca.
Well, MissMommy….since you seem to have most of the answers this morning, What is Sparkie’s ETA and BFR ??? Then tell us his MPH and ATM….
…..and Zoe…the answer WAS 42 until M2N2 replaced the batteries in her catculator, and all hell broke loose….so let’s just go with “HAPPY NEW YEAR”!!!!!
I think I’ve found this Sparky’s parent here.
Well it’s no mystery as to why Financial Management and Information Management are two of their lowest scores.
It took me two seconds of googling to find GPA calculators. Using the simplest one and going by the American system of anything being below a 65 equaling an F, I calculated a 0.54. That may be a passing grade in whatever country they’re from but it isn’t here. Good luck applying to other colleges, Sparky. You’re gonna need it.
(Uh-oh, the boss showed up today!)
So, Ralph, ghostie, M2N2, thanks for playing, here is your lovely parting Punchity Punch Punch!
Happy New Year, Sparky and Friends!
Just do what I do and pick “C” for everything. So…
4.0 = A
3.0 = B
2.0 = C
Your GPA is 2.0.
