This depends on the class since different classes may or may not be graded on a curve and weighted differently dependent on students' performance and grades.

Percentile wise, 50% would not be a passing grade. In most places a 60% or higher is needed to pass.

What percent do i need on the final to pass the course my mark going into the exam is 38 percent and the final is worth 30 percent?

It depends on your overall grade. Just from the question it sounds as if you are not doing too well in the class. Think of a higher grade than just a passing one and you are more apt to pass the test.

What letter grade is 34 over 50?

You can find the percentage by dividing 50 (the total) by the number you received (34).That's a 68 percent. If your teacher grades on a curve, that could be anything from a D- to an A; on a strict percentage scale, it would normally be a D or D+ though a very lenient teacher might regard it as a C-.


How many grades are there in France schools?

While I don't really understand the question I will answer according to what I think is the question: How do schools grade in France ?" They grade using a system of 20 points maximum. So for instance a 20 on a test is 100% and a 10 is 50%. They never use the letter grade system. The passing feade is 50% or 10/20. Although it seems lower than the well accepted 65% in USA, it is much harder to get a high grade in France. For instance, 65% wuld be onsodered a pretty good grade. Tests are made in a way that it is not easy to even get 10/20 every time. You pass the year if your average is 10 or above. The last year of high school, even if you pass for the year, it is special because you still have to pass in July or your senior year the BACCALAUREAT, which is sort of a big final in every main subect. If you fail your Baccalaureat, then no matter what you scores were during the year, you have to do another Senior year. Hope this helps. Happy and healthy 2009 to everyone !

If you have a 52 percent in science and the exam is worth 30 percent how much do you need to pass to get 50 and over?

If 50 is passing: right now the contribution towards the total grade is (.70)*52, so the total grade = (.70)*52 + (.30)*E [for the final exam grade]. If the target is 50 for the total grade, then 50 = (.70)*52 + (.30)*E, and solve for E = (50 - (.70)*52)/(.30) = 45.3333, so a grade of 46 would put the final grade over 50. By the way, the maximum possible grade of a 100 on the final will result in 66.4 for the total grade.
