    Final Exam: Monday June 9, 2:30 pm - 4:20 pm, (EE, Room 105), Sections 19.1 - 19.3

Your GPA will be assigned using the formula: GPA = 3.0 + (your_score – class_average_score)*(4.0-3.0)/(class_highest_score-class_average_score).

Where, your_score is the average of the five highest scores you receive from Exam 1, Exam 2, Exam 3, Exam 4, Exam 5 and the Final Exam. 
The class_highest_score is the highest score achieved in the entire class, and class_average_score is the class average.
