Getting your final grade in 5.112
The grades for 5.112 have been submitted to the registrar. When they become available, you can view them on WEBSIS.
If you are a freshman, you will see a “P” for pass (if you passed the course). To get your actual letter grade, you will need to meet with your freshman advisor in January. If you did not pass the class, no grade will appear since fall term is pass/no record.
The 5.112 Staff (both faculty and TAs) will not tell you your letter grade, so please do not ask us via email. We will not tell you.
If after getting your letter grade, you would like to see your final exam, you need to email Dr. Christie after January 21st for an appointment.
Have a great break and get lots of sleep.
