Course Grade:
Your course grade will be based on homework, 3 class exams, and a comprehensive final exam weighted as follows:
Homework 17%
3 Class Exams 17% each
Final Exam 32%
In the event that your final exam grade is better than the average of your class exam grades, it will instead count 53% of your grade and the 3 class exams will count 10% each. This system can only help your grade. . The grading scale for all exams and the homework is as follows:
A = 92 and above A- = 90 – 91.9
B+ = 88 – 89.9 B = 82 – 87.9 B- = 80 – 81.9
C+ = 78 – 79.9 C = 72 – 77.9 C- = 70 – 71.9
D+ = 68 – 69.9 D = 62 – 67.9 D- = 55 – 61.9
F = 54.9 and below
The class exams will be given on the following dates
February 13
March 27
April 24
The final exam is scheduled on Wednesday, May 6, 3:00 – 5:30 pm.
Homework will be assigned on most class days and is normally due at the next class meeting. Homework must be turned in on time except in the case of an excused absence.
You are expected to attend class regularly. Please note that the last day to voluntarily withdraw from class is March 18.
