Thanks, I looked - is that the issue we're having?

I didn’t import anything and am not getting an error.

I just saw I was incorrect.  There is a one quiz at the bottom that is 4 points.

If I remove that one (Uncheck Include in Grade) - the drop 4 works properly.

So it looks like this is what I'm up against.

Do you mind doing the following:

- changing one of the quiz's  total points to 6,
- save and reload the gradebook
- change the quiz total points back to 5
- save and reload the gradebook

Yes, all quizzes are 5 point in this class.

I've tailed catalina.out - and watched as I set dropped to - 0, then to 1, then to 2… etc
No errors scroll by, so I guess that's good.

I've exited the course and gone back in  / refreshed gb2- thinking maybe it was caching or something.  Still doesn't affect the scores.

Very strange.

Are all the quizzes worth 5 points? It looks like that there is a bug if you drop lowest but the items don't have equal points possible. If they all have equal points possible, just try to set drop lowest and then save it again.

Thanks Thomas -

I've attached screen shots.
Looks like its version 1.8.0 (that's listed in the category screenshot)
Looks like 20 quizzes have been graded so far

Thanks,
 Jon

Jon,

Can you please provide the following information:

- GB2 version
- Category settings screen capture
- Student view screen capture
- How many items have been graded in the quizzes category?

Best,
-- Thomas

I apologize if this is a stupid question, but a prof has two categories,
once called Quizzes one called Tests.

The quizzes category has Drop Lowest set to 4

When viewing a student in that course, it lists Scores Dropped 0

Is there some process that has to run to drop those lowest 4 or maybe he
has some configuration option wrong?
