ATTENDANCE POLICY
Attendance for this class is required and will be taken on a regular basis. If a student misses no more than 4 classes during the term, then a bonus of 3% will be added to the student's final % average.
|
GRADING POLICY
The grade is based on 4 tests (in-class, closed book) worth 100 points each, and a comprehensive final exam worth 200 points. There are no make-up tests and a missed test is counted as a zero. However, the final exam, in addition to counting as a final exam worth 200 points, is used as test 5 where it is worth 100 points. The best 4 out of 5 test scores plus the final exam score (a maximum of 600 points) are used to compute the final average.
