ok gang. which curve type do you think is better:
A) raw score + fixed number
(if curve is 4, someone who got a 50 would get a 54, and someone who got a 95 would get a 99)
B) raw score + percentage back
(if curve is 16%, someone who got a 50 would get a 58, someone who got a 95 would get a 95.8)

i don’t think i’ve ever seen B actually
I have seen both, B sucks a lot more
pretty much every curve i’ve seen has been to the effect of “the highest scorer gets a perfect score and everyone gets their points bumped up by the number of points they missed to reflect this”

This has become less popular cuz if its a 200 person class and 1 person gets perfect score and next person has a 75%, everyone is boned

math department here does B. which had the funny consequence of me getting a whopping 0.6 back on my math exam. with a 12% back curve. although considering class average was 70 post-curve it kiiinda makes sense? but also that’s only, like, 4ish points back on average per student which seems low.
dunno why they have problems bumping ppl above 100 considering tons of extra credit is given out just for attending class
