Gradebook Rules:
Add a new rule to grading rules that drops the lowest grade based on overall negative IMPACT.
I make each test worth more points so the first test of the semester is usually worth very little. If I use drop by lowest %, this first test is sometimes dropped when it really doesn't impact the grade much by the end of the semester. If I drop by negative weight, then an 79% on a 500 point test gets dropped instead of the 0 on the the 100 point test even though the 79% helps the student's grade.
I need a grading rule that drops the grade from the test category that has the biggest negative impact on the grade.

My first test is worth a fifth of my last test. Dropping by lowest percentage isn't always appropriate and dropping by negative weight can drop a 79% on the 500 point test and keeping the 0% on the chapter 0 test.
