Introduction to Stats- Final Exam Points

[BSITinCali]

Ok, Can someone who has taken Intro to Statistics through Straighterline give me some feedback. This is my last course before I finish my degree and my academic advisor told me my transcript needs to be in by December 16th or else my degree won't be conferred until next year, so I'm a little paranoid:willynilly: about my current course. I'm trying to get the best scores on my exams so when it comes time for my final proctored exam, I'll have some cushion especially because it's closed book, and only a calculator and 2 sheets of PLAIN paper are allowed. So I have a feeling I won't do that great.

Ok, I scored 95% on my first exam after taking it again. If I score anywhere between 90-95 on the next 5 exams as there are 7 exams total (including the final) how many points would I have to get on the final? The final exam consists of 60 questions worth 500 points. I broke it down to each answer would then be worth 8.3 points if all answers are weighted the same. Does anyone if all the questions are all equally worth the same amount of points?

Just take the total number of points you need to score 70% on the entire course (for example 700 out of 1000), and then subtract each quiz score from that amount. The number left over is the score you need to get on the final. For example, say there are 5 quizzes each worth 100 points, and a 500-pt final. If you scored 90/100 on each quiz, at the end of those you would have 450 points. Subtracting that from 700 (70% of the total points needed) would give you 250 points. So you would need to score 250/500 (50%) on the final. 450 + 250 = 700, 700/1000 = 70%.
