Some teachers grade on a "(bell) curve" based on the belief that classroom test scores are normally distributed. One way of doing this is to assign a "C" to all scores within 1 standard deviation of the mean. The teacher then assigns a "B" to all scores between 1 and 2 standard deviations above the mean and an "A" to all scores more than 2 standard deviations above the mean, and uses symmetry to define the regions for "D" and...
