Overall Grading Scale PA 601 Human Anatomy One Syllabus Fall 2023 Page 11 of 20 The SEU PA Program uses the following grading system for all courses: Grade (on a 100 point Scale) Letter Grade Quality Points (on 4.0 Scale) 93-100 90-92 87-89 83-86 80-82 76-79 70-75 <70 A AB+ B BC+ C F 4.00 3.67 3.33 3.00 2.67 2.33 2.00 Academic criteria for passing the course / progression: Satisfactory performance in all SEU PA Program courses is a “B-” or better. A final course grade of C or C+ is considered unacceptable performance and the student must successfully remediate the course in accordance with the SEU PA Program remediation policy; however, students may only successfully remediate a maximum of two courses. A student who receives a third final course grade of C or C+ will be dismissed from the SEU PA Program. Failure to successfully remediate the course material will result in dismissal from the SEU PA Program. A final course grade of F is considered failing and may not be remediated. A student who receives a final course grade of F will be dismissed from the SEU PA Program. Any student who is experiencing difficulty with the course material should contact the course instructor, the course director, and their advisor as soon as possible to develop a plan for improvement. Please note that while the instructor may scale or curve any individual quiz or exam during the semester, THE FINAL GRADES POSTED ON MOODLE WILL NOT BE SCALED OR CURVED ANY FURTHER. Methods of Student Evaluation: Team-based assignments: Each team is responsible for participating in the activity of the week. The team will get a grade based in participation, however each team must submit a written document on Moodle at the end of each session. This will serve to document the teams completion of the assignment and function as a study guide, as some exam questions will be drawn from the activity. PA 601 Human Anatomy One Syllabus Fall 2023 Page 12 of 20 Written quizzes: Students are expected to come prepared to each class having done the reading assignments. Quizzes are based on the material in the reading assignments and class discussion, and are completed individually. Written exams: There will be three (3) written examinations; completed individually.

The course instructor will not discuss the exam with students until after the grades have been posted. Posted exam grades are final. No in-class exam reviews will be done. Students may make an appointment with the course instructor to complete a test performance analysis. In-course Remediation Policy: A student who receives a grade of B- or below on any evaluation measure may be asked to meet with the course instructor. If overall course performance drops below a B-, the student may be asked to meet with the course instructor to discuss methods to improve performance/comprehension of course material. A student who receives a grade lower than a B- on an examination (written or practical), may be asked to meet with the course instructor to remediate the exam material which includes the completion of a test performance analysis. The particulars of the remediation will be defined by the course instructor. The original grade for the evaluation method will remain the same.
