ATTENDANCE: Since class lectures may include material that is not included in the book, class attendance is highly recommended.
EXAMS: There are 4-5 in-class exams and a final exam. All exams are closed book, closed notes. One page (front and back) of notes is allowed. Basic Calculators are allowed. No wireless devices (Phones, PDAs, Pagers) are allowed. Each in-class exam contributes 12-15% of the overall grade; the final exam contributes 40%.
MISSED EXAM POLICY: Exams are taken at the scheduled class time
or in the case of the final at the scheduled final exam period. In the
rare case when this is not possible, a make-up exam may be possible. However,
this must be approved by the instructor before the scheduled exam time.
If arrangements have not been made in advance, a missed exam will be recorded
as a zero. Extreme medical emergencies are handled specially. Any such
absences should be approved by the Dean of Students office.
