Grading Policy

10 point homework assignments will be given. Unannounced 10 point quizzes may be administered at any time. At the end of the semester, the lowest homework/quiz score will be dropped. Three 100 point tests will be given. No test score will be dropped. A practice of giving make-up tests is not made. If a student knows that he of she will be absent the day of a test, he or she may take the test before the given day. If a make-up test is given, it will be much harder than the original test and must be made up before the following test is given. If every student in the class is present the day of the test, each student will receive 2 bonus points on the given test. A 100 point Comprehensive Final Exam will be given Tuesday May 4, 2010, 6:00 - 8:30 PM. The last day to drop this class with a "W" grade is Monday March 15, 2010.
