Do does a 90s = 4
80s = 3
70s = 2
on a scale of 4.0???
Or are some of you guys on a different scales at DMU Barry Scholl OCPM??

Yes, but we don't have retakes.OCPM sounds the exact same as Barry, except no D's anything below a C(70) is an F
Yes, but we don't have retakes.
If a student finishes a class with 66.0-69.9%, then...
..at OCPM they'd take a retake to get a C if they passed, while at Barry they get a D.
If a student gets a below a 66.0% final grade, then...
...at OCPM they'd take a retake to get a C if they passed, while at Barry they get an F and have to remediate.
so do the residency directors know these differences in school grading systems???
whats a good gpa range for getting a good res spot?
Thanks guys
An academic interview can be questions or cases.sorry stupid question, whats an academic interview?
they ask you questions related to podiatry? so it all comes down to one or two random pod-related questions then
Azpod
A-C
+/- are used.
Must get above 70 to pass, anything less is an F.
69.7% and up (I think) will get you by.
is a c- average good enough to graduate with overall?
No, just for a single class. If you got straight C-, I don't thinkg it would fly.
I think the straight % system is the way to go; I wish all pod schools did that. That also helps make sure everyone studys hard for every test. With our straight letter grade system, it's pretty tough to change your grade going into a final exam already "locked into" a grade...Temple gives a straight percentage. So if you averaged 89% on all yout tests then that is your grade. I actually like this better that the A-F system because it really shows how a student does compared to other students at the school. For example, if a school only has the A-F system with no +/- then a person who got an 80% will get a B and a person who got an 89% will also get a B. IMO, there is a big difference between those two scores but know one will know and it looks like the students performed the same. The system helps those in the low 80% but screws the person who got an 89%. Adding +/- helps though to better distinquish the performance of each student than without it. But for me I like it if residencies can see the real difference in grades because this will be helpful for the ones who truely worked their butt off.
Just wondering because a C- on a 4.0 scale is a 1.7 and any student at any school should really have at least a 2.0 in order to graduate. IMO
No, a 79% is a C and a 2.0 in the straight letter grade system... anything 70-79.5% is a C and the same gpa effect.so is a 79% a 2.0 then?
so is a 79% a 2.0 then?
