🏁 Final Grades β€” Consolidated per student

Each cell is the already-weighted contribution of that component. The last column is the KAIST equivalence. Cells stay Pending until the grades are loaded.

KAIST equivalence (instructor's scale): A+ 95–100 Β· A0 90–95 Β· A- 85–90 Β· B+ 80–85 Β· B0 75–80 Β· B- 70–75 Β· C+ 65–70 Β· C0 60–65.  Rule: no one receives A+ β€” anyone landing in the A+ range is adjusted to A0 (4.0). Component A includes a configurable participation adjustment (default +0, set per student in the Sheet). D includes the AI Appendix (Β±5).
