In order to arrive at a correct judgment upon the total record in a course, a value must be assigned to each of its components. Unless the final grade is to be no more than a rough approximation of the true value of the work done in a course, a unit of measurement must be adopted and all letter grades recomputed in terms of that unit. For example, how much weight should be assigned...
