We ask that the final exam result be changed from 50 to 40. This change would make the course assessment better balanced for everyone who has worked hard across the term.
A lower final exam weight would better reflect the work done throughout the course, including class participation, assignments, and steady effort over time.
We respectfully ask that this change be approved so that final grades reflect learning in a more balanced way.
Changing the final to 40% encourages consistent work across the semester instead of placing excessive pressure on one assessment.
