 Attendance
One very important requirement for doing well is to attend each lecture. A
student absent from the class bears full responsibility for all material covered
in class. When you do miss a class, contact a classmate to verify what
was discussed. If you failed a Test then for you attendance may become
MANDATORY.
Advice:
Working with other students in small groups is strongly recommended.
You must work (not watch) problems, problems and more problems.
Personal time expectation
You are expected to spend at least 6-8 hours per week outside of class
studying and doing homework for this course, but you may have to spend
even more time.
Homework
Homework is especially important in any math course. The homework
assignment for a section should be done after that section was presented
in class, BEFORE the next lecture. Random homework problems will be
collected. The instructor RESERVES THE RIGHT TO START collecting
complete homework (if, for example, you failed a test).
Homework 20% of the FINAL GRADE
You may have short quizes. Then they will be included in HW percentage,
and problems on the quizzes will be from the assigned homework problems
or similar.
Tests 55% of the FINAL GRADE
There will be 3 regular tests. Although makeups may be given for missed
exams, makeups will be given only for reasons acceptable to the instructor,
and WRITTEN, verifiable excuses for missed exams will be requared before
a makeup exam is given. Makeups are never easier than the originals.

Final 25 % of the FINAL GRADE

There will be a comprehensive FINAL EXAM .
Reminder
To receive credit for quiz and exam problems you MUST show all your
work.
Grading
20 %- Homework (and quizes if given)
55 % - Tests
25 % - Final Exam
Unless otherwise announced in class, numerical scores will translate into
letter grades following the scale : 99-100 A+, 93-98 A, 90-92 A-, 88-89 B+,

2
83-87 B, 80-82 B-, 78-79 C+, 73-77 C, 70-72 C-, 68-69 D+, 60-67 D, 0-59 F.

In addition to the scale you have to take the final to pass the class. You
have to pass the final to get grades B or higher. You have to to get A- or
higher for the final to get A+ for the class.
