BSN 1a and BSN 1e Final Grades in College Algebra

Good day! You are probably enjoying your semestral break by this time. I think I promised to post your grades at a later day but I was informed that your department set a Monday deadline so I'm posting your final grades in algebra this early. I merged the grades of BSN1a and BSN1e so please locate your Student Number.

I highlighted (in red) the grades of the students who have grades 90 and above. Congratulations! I'm so sorry to inform you that a number of students got grades below 85 and I don't know what is the implication on your stay at the School of Health Sciences. I hope that in case you will be screened out because of your low grade in my subject, you take it as a challenge and a learning experience. I know your grades do not define who you really are but let this be a reminder, that in life in order for us to succeed, we need to work hard and sacrifice.

Anyway, you can download your FINAL GRADES HERE. (Note: you will be directed to Rapidshare. Click "Free Account/User" if it prompts you to choose between "Free Account/User" and "Premium Account/User". Then click download. )

For questions/clarifications please leave a comment (don't forget to write your Student/ID number if you want to be recognized.) Thanks.
