End of quarter statistics...who made the cut?

"...Lastly, out of curisosity was there a large percent of people in the class needing to re-take this course?"

Well, I started with 62 students.

2 withdrew
6 withdrew/pass
2 withdrew/fail

5 A's
11 B's
23 C's
12 D's
1 F

Let's break that down into percentages:

16% of the class did not finish the class
63% of the class passed with a grade of C or higher
21% of the class did not pass with a grade of C or higher

If you count the one's that did not finish and the ones that did not pass with a grade of C or higher, then 37% of the class will have to retake the class.

If you compare that with the evening class, which is taught by another instructor:

He started off with 30 students

3 withdrew
2 withdrew/pass
1 withdrew/fail

3 A's
6 B's
8 C's
7 D's

20% did not finish the class
57% passed with a grade of C or higher
23% did not pass with a grade of C or higher

43% will have to retake the class.

Pretty similar results, I think.
