December 19, 6-8 pm (room TBA) Grading Policies The midterm exams are worth 100 points each, the final exam 200 points. Final grades for the course will be based on 400 points total. We will drop your lowest 100 points from consideration; this could either be one of the midterm exams or half of the score on the final. To ensure that the relative weighting of each exam is consistent, all exams will be normalized. If you miss a midterm exam (for any reason), that exam score will be dropped. You may not continue in the course after missing more than one midterm exam. No makeup midterm exams will be given. Note: if you have a valid conflict with the evening exam times (i.e. another rostered course) we will arrange for you to take the exam earlier the same day.
