Penn Foster Class Grading
#1
I'm a little confused and don't have access to the Penn Foster community site yet so I thought I'd ask here.

I'm taking Penn Foster Business Ethics.

The grade is made up of all four exams, four discussion groups, webinars and project and that's 67% of the grade. 33% of the grade is the final exam.

I can understand how the exams impact the grade but since 67% is a combination of different elements, how are things like discussion groups (answering case study questions) and webinars weighted when they are just pass/fail?

Thanks!

In the four PF courses I took, 2 had webinars, and only one had discussions, and all of that was pass/fail; participation = pass.

How did the pass/fail calculate in your grade?

It doesn't really calculate into your grade, but you have to complete that requirement in order to complete the course.

In the 67% of the grade that involves the 4 exams and 1 graded project, are all 5 weighted equally?

I can't remember. Your course syllabus should tell you.
