The room for the final exam will be announced in class. You have to be present at each exam at the scheduled time and in the assigned room. Exams cannot be held at earlier dates than the ones scheduled. In such cases like sudden illness you should notify me as soon as possible. To be eligible for a make-up exam, you will need an official excuse from the Associate Vice President for Resident Life, or the Dean of First Year of Studies. Missing an exam without such an excuse results in a score of 0 on that exam. Grades: Exams I-III are worth 100 points each, and the Final is worth 150 points. Your midsemester grade (for freshmen) will be determined by the sum of the scores on the first two exams. The course grade is determined primarily by the sum of the scores on the four exams, and plus and minus grades are possible. For borderline cases, however, I may use attendance, homework scores, etc. Attendance: Freshmen are required by the University to attend all classes; three or more absences may result in a grade of "F". You are responsible for any information given out in class (such as exam rooms, homework assignments, etc). Homework will be assigned and collected regularly. Doing the homework is very important for mastering the material in this class. Study: As University students, you are expected to spend at least two hours outside of class for every hour in class, organizing your notes, reading the text, solving the homework etc. Continuing study throughout the semester and keeping up with the pace of the class are the only keys to success in this course.
