EXP ECH02 H4 - Professor's Grade Book 2.3<br />

Project Description:<br />

You are a teaching assistant for Dr. Denise Gerber, who teaches an introductory C#<br />

programming class at your college. One of your routine tasks is to enter assignment and test<br />

grades into the grade book. Now that the semester is almost over, you need to create<br />

formulas to calculate category averages, the overall weighted average, and the letter grade<br />

for each student. In addition, Dr. Gerber wants to see general statistics, such as average,<br />

median, low, and high for each graded assignment and test, as well as category averages<br />

and total averages. Furthermore, you need to create the grading scale on the documentation<br />

worksheet and use it to display the appropriate letter grade for each student.<br />

Instructions:<br />

For the purpose of grading the project you are required to perform the following tasks:<br />

Step Instructions Points<br />

Possible


1 Start Excel. Download and open the file<br />

0.000<br />

​ named​<strong>exploring</strong>_<strong>e02</strong>_<strong>grader</strong>_h4.xlsx.<br />

2 In the range A7:B9 in the Documentation sheet, enter<br />

3.000<br />

the breakpoints for the C grades. In row 7, enter ​70 ​as<br />

the breakpoint for ​C-​; in row 8, enter ​73 ​as the<br />

breakpoint for ​C​; and in row 9, enter ​77 ​as the<br />

breakpoint for ​C+​.<br />

3 Assign the name ​Grades​ to the range A3:B14 in the<br />

4.000<br />

Documentation sheet.<br />

4 In cell R3 of the Grades sheet, calculate the total lab<br />

9.000<br />

points earned for the first student in the Grades<br />

worksheet. Lab assignments are indicated by the<br />

column labels L1 through L10. Copy the function to the<br />

range R4:R21.<br />

5 In cell U3 of the Grades sheet, calculate the average of<br />

9.000<br />

the two midterm tests for the first student. Midterm tests


are indicated by the column labels M1 and M2. Copy the<br />

function to the range U4:U21.<br />

6 In cell G3 of the Grades sheet, calculate the assignment<br />

9.000<br />

average for the first student. Assignments are indicated<br />

by the column labels A1 through A5. The formula should<br />

drop the lowest score before calculating the average<br />

using a combination of SUM, MIN, and COUNT. The<br />

argument for each function for the first student is B3:F3.<br />

Find the total points (SUM) and subtract the lowest<br />

score (MIN) from the result. Then divide the remaining<br />

points by the number of assignments (COUNT) minus 1.<br />

Copy the formula to the range G4:G21.<br />

7 In cell W3 of the Grades sheet, calculate the weighted<br />

6.000<br />

total points based on the four category points<br />

(assignment average, lab points, midterm average, and<br />

final exam, in that order) and their respective weights<br />

(stored in the range B30:B33). Use relative and absolute


cell references as needed in the formula. Copy the<br />

formula to the range W4:W21.<br />

8 In cell X3 of the Grades sheet, use a VLOOKUP<br />

9.000<br />

function to calculate the letter grade equivalent. Use the<br />

range name to reference the lookup table in the<br />

function. Copy the formula to the range X4:X21.<br />

9 Name the passing score threshold in cell B1 with the<br />

4.000<br />

range name ​Passing​.<br />

10 In cell Y3, use an IF function to display a message<br />

6.000<br />

based on the student’s semester performance. If a<br />

student earned a final score of 70 or higher, display the<br />

label ​Enroll in CS 202​. Otherwise, display the label<br />

RETAKE CS 101​. Use the range name in the function


(​Passing​)to reference the cell containing 70. Copy the<br />

function to the range Y4:Y21.<br />

11 In cell B24, enter a function to calculate the average<br />

6.000<br />

score for the Assignment 1 values stored in the range<br />

B3:B21. Copy the function to the range C24:W24.<br />

12 In cell B25, enter a function to calculate the median<br />

6.000<br />

score for the Assignment 1 values stored in the range<br />

B3:B21. Copy the function to the range C25:W25.<br />

13 In cell B26, enter a function to display the low score for<br />

6.000<br />

the Assignment 1 values stored in the range B3:B21.<br />

Copy the function to the range C26:W26.<br />

14 In cell B27, enter a function to display the highest score<br />

6.000<br />

for the Assignment 1 values stored in the range B3:B21.<br />

Copy the function to the range C27:W27.


15 In cell Z3, insert the RANK function to display the first<br />

6.000<br />

student’s rank in the class based on the student’s total<br />

points compared to the range of all students’ total<br />

points. Copy the function to the range Z4:Z21.<br />

16 Insert a list of range names starting in cell D3 in the<br />

5.000<br />

Documentation worksheet.<br />

17 Create a footer on each worksheet with the text<br />

6.000<br />

Exploring Series​ on the left side, the sheet name code<br />

in the center, and the file name code on the right side.<br />

18 Ensure that the worksheets are placed in the following<br />

0.000<br />

order in the workbook: ​Documentation, Grades. Save<br />

the workbook. Close the workbook and then exit Excel.<br />

Submit the workbook as directed.
