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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PATINO LOIRA, JAVIER | 3.87 | 3.87 | 470 | 5 | 94% |
| DE ZUBIAURRE, MARIA TERESA | 3.62 | 3.59 | 99 | 1 | 77% |
“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.
