         While grade cutoffs are not rigidly determined ahead of time, a point total of

                                 306 or better ensures no worse than an A- 

                                 272 ensures no worse than a B- 

                                 238 ensures no worse than a C-

                                 204 ensures no worse than a D

        

                                 However, the cutoffs may be lower. 

             

                                 The Final will be used as a tiebreaker.
