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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DA COSTA ALVES, EDUARDO PAULO JORGE | 3.64 | 3.65 | 32 | 2 | 78% |
| ROY, RAHUL | 3.63 | 3.64 | 21 | 2 | 76% |
“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.
