What a weird max score... as someone who grades, you generally want it in a way that gives a clean percentage, mostly for transparency and tracking for students. My class does 500 total points (thus a 5 point quiz is 1%, 100 point exam is 20%, etc.), which is what previous instructors did and helps students figure out what is needed for an A.
But 59/59? Thats confusing af. Bet it's out of some arbitrary total, too.
lol you're inventing issues
there are 59 points to be gotten on this work. they got all 59. somebody who missed three points would get 56
it doesn't make a difference for record-keeping and final grading, it's all going in a spreadsheet anyways. if students care about percentage on that specific item, they can calculate it themselves
In University some professors like to make life easier so it all adds up to 100 points. The finals would be 40, >80% attendance 10, midterm 20, and 3 assignments 10 each. So u can know if u passed the course even before finals.
You guys get spreadsheets? Clearly overpaid.
Maybe it was 60 originally but the teacher then decided to remove/not grade some part of the exam.
Perfect 5/7 comment
59/59 is a clean percentage… it’s 100%
Come on, give the teacher some slack. This is such a small detail, and every decent grade keeping software handles arbitrary max scores just fine.
