What the reported grades show
ACC 310F (Foundations of Accounting) has 33,588 reported letter grades across 46 semesters in this export, from Summer 2011 to Summer 2026. Combining those grades gives a mean of 3.16 on UT’s four-point scale. This is a count-weighted result: every reported letter grade contributes once to the course total, so larger reported groups have more influence than smaller groups. It is not an average of rounded semester GPAs.
In ACC 310F, 8,249 of the 33,588 letter grades were A, or 24.6%. Another 6,452 were A−. Combining A and A− produces an A-range share of 43.8%, a different measure from the A-only figure at the top of the page. The distribution also records 613 F grades. The combined D+, D, D− and F share is 4.8%. These figures help show the shape of the historical outcomes alongside the overall mean.
The latest reported semester for ACC 310F is Summer 2026. Its 94 letter grades yield 2.92 average grade points and 26.6% A grades. Across semesters with letter grades, the reported mean ranges from 2.78 in Summer 2019 to 3.58 in Spring 2020. The largest reported letter-grade count is in Spring 2017, with 1,590 letter grades.
Within the ACC source group, the pooled undergraduate average is 3.24 across 96,680 letter grades and 20 courses. ACC 310F is 0.08 grade points below that pooled mean. This comparison combines different courses and student groups; it does not adjust for prerequisites, course level or selection into a class. Use the department hub to compare the underlying grade counts before interpreting that difference.
ACC 310F appears in Fall, Spring, Summer in the reported history. Fall accounts for the largest number of its reported letter grades (16,133). These are observed reporting seasons, not a promise about the next schedule. Check the catalog prerequisites and the syllabus for the exact section before registration; a past grade distribution does not describe an upcoming instructor’s assignments, attendance rules or assessment weights.
