It all comes down to the final exam on Tuesday, worth 30% of my grade. And how much the grades are curved. Everything else is already determined.

From the syllabus:

Letter grade cutoffs will be determined at the end of the semester, and there is the possibility of an upwards curve (though not a guarantee of one).

Here's an estimate of my grades — though it's very sensitive to the final exam score... maybe this market will motivate me to study more...

I started doing a practice exam but got apathetic in the middle. The true/false questions were weirdly hard in a way I'm suspicious they will be on the real exam, but I haven't looked at the answer key yet.

Note: for the last two tests I only did a "fake practice exam," where I listed what methods I would use to solve each problem and skipped the laborious computation. So that's my baseline; real practice exam is extra. I might transition into fake though
