Thus, RESP aims for students to finishthe semester in the top two-thirds of the course, which in most cases reflects grades of B- orbetter.Hypothesis 4: RESP participants will receive proportionately more B- or higher grades than theproportion received by control group students in first-semester chemistry.Hypothesis 5: RESP participants will
