make-up final exam!
There will be four one hour-exams, three quizzes and a final exam. The
link to Exams at the top of the page contains all the information about the
dates and the material that each exam will cover. Each hour-exam is worth 100
points. The lowest hour-exam score will be dropped, and only the best three
scores of the hour-exams will be used to compute your final grade. The final
exam is cumulative, and it is worth 170 points. Homework
is assigned weekly (under the link to Assignments above), but it will not
be collected. The quizzes will be out of homework problems, therefore you are
strongly encouraged to do all the assigned homework. Each quiz is worth 10
points. The maximum score you can achieve in the class
is 500 points.
The final letter grade will be assigned using the following scale:
95-100%=A,
90-95%=A-, 87-90%=B+, 84-87%=B, 80-84%=B-, 77-80%=C+, 74-77%=C, 70-74%=C-,
67-70%=D+, 60-67%=D, 0-60%=F.
