TEXT: Matlin, M. (2010). Cognition, special edit. Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley &Sons.

GRADES: Class grades are based on the scores from the midterm and final exams. The
midterm contains 50 multiple-choice questions; the final exam is cumulative and contains
100 multiple choice questions. There are no make-up exams.
The grades are computed as follows. Let "H" stand for the highest score someone
achieves on the combination of both tests, then
A = 90 - 100% of H
B = 75 - 89% of H
C = 60 - 74% of H
D = 50 - 59% of H
