Grey bars are non-letter outcomes — P/NP, S/U, incompletes. They are excluded from the GPA entirely rather than scored, because counting a P as a 4.0 would be a fabrication.
By instructor
| Instructor | Predicted | Raw | n | Terms | A range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MCDEVITT, EDWARD P | 3.09 | 3.09 | 288 | 2 | 35% |
| HOPENHAYN, HUGO ANDRES | 2.97 | 2.96 | 109 | 3 | 32% |
“Predicted” is shrunk toward the course average, which is itself shrunk toward the department — so an instructor with a handful of students sits near the course mean rather than topping the list.
