Hi - I am currently taking some science prereqs at the Harvard Extension School, to meet requirements for OT masters programs. Right now I'm in Human Anatomy & Physiology I, which has a weekly 20-point quiz, 2 midterms, and a final. I'm averaging above 19/20 on each quiz, and expect to end up with somewhere between 90%-95%, straight score, based on quizzes, exams, and labs. I REALLY want to get an A, not an A-, in this class. I graduated from college over 10 years ago, (have a recent masters degree, but it's non-science) and I would really like to get a letter of recommendation from this prof, but she has a policy of only giving them out to students who receive an A in both classes in the two-semester sequence.
Does anyone have any sense of the grade distributions in HES science classes in general, A&P in particular? I think I'm doing well, but it's hard to know what will get an A. The syllabus just says it's the same requirements as for the A-, but with "extraordinary distinction." Would that be top 10%? Top 5%?
Thanks!!!
