So I have a 73 in math. Failing is 69. If I failed my exam, would I fail for the semester? :( What is the lowest grade I could get with out failing for the semester?

how many points is the exam? I'm estimating if you get a really really low score, like somewhere in the 60s, it'll drag your grade down. you need to get a ... 71 or better on the exam. 71-72 will lower your grade but not a lot (probably 1%). 73 - stay the same. if you get higher than a 73 it might go up

/estimate

The lowest you can get is a 50. I'm just horrible at math. Thank you for helping me. I think I"m going to get somewhere in the 60s :(. Hopefully not, maybe he'll give us points, and maybe I guess correctly on some. :3

If I did it correctly, you have to get above a 65 to remain passing.

Sorry to say, but that's impossible to calculate without knowing what percentage of your grade the exam is worth. Like mine is 15% of my overall grade.
