FAQ - how does the "Drop Lowest Grade" work?

Is the lowest grade dropped per Academic Term or the lowest grade per grading unit?

If you use Weighted Grading Units, it would drop the lowest grade in that category per grading unit. When you use grading units it completely isolates grade average calculations for each unit and then combines the averages from each unit to determine the overall grade.

If your Grading Units are not weighted, it calculates the overall grade average as if it was a single academic term and ignores the units.  In this case, it would only drop the one lowest grade for the entire Academic Term.
