See Exams/Time/Date/Location for the exam schedule. See Old Exams For practice
for sample exam questions (Our schedule is a little out of sync. with previous semesters, hence the sections covered on exams from previous semesters will also be a little out of sync. with our exams).

Tutorials: Each student must attend their assigned tutorial on Tuesday of each week. In the first tutorial, the tutors will go over the class information and start a review of algebra. In subsequent tutorials, quizzes will be administered and collected in the tutorials.

Each tutorial in which a quiz is given, will be given a score of 10 points. Ten points will also be given for attendance and participation in the final tutorial. The lowest two of these tutorial grades will be dropped to calculate your grade out of 100 points.

Homework: Homework will be assigned electronically. For more details see Online Homework Information
