The information presented here is only for the courses and sections taught by Dr. Ziser since he began teaching at ACC in 1985. While most data are typical of that of most instructors who teach these particular courses, at present data are not available for comparison with that of the college as a whole or with any other specific instructor for a particular course.

This information is only a guide to help you develop a realistic assessment of course grading policies, the difficulty of the course, instructors grading policies and "curves", etc. The data include:

Remember that data from courses with few sections and/or few students are less reliable and less predictable than data presented from courses with several sections and/or many students.

By scrolling the screen up or down you can compare data for the specific course you are interested in to data from other courses I have taught at ACC.
