About Average Grade Point and Average Workload Level
The formula for calculating the average grade point and average workload level gives a Bayesian average:
Where:
- C: arithmetic mean of grade point / workload level across all Area 1-3 GE courses
- v: number of comments for that course
- m: minimum number of comments required to be listed (now is 10)
- R: arithmetic mean of grade point / workload level for that course
The average grade point ranges between 0 to 4.3. The average workload level ranges between 1 to 5, where 1 for very light while 5 for very heavy.
