Exams and Grading

There will absolutely be no make-up for the hour exams. However, the total points of the best 10 quizzes (10 points each for maximum) may be substituted for any one (and only once) of the hour exams. Each hour exam carries 100 points and the final 200 points. The final letter grade will be determined based upon the percentage out of the total of 500 points, consisting of the final, the highest 2 hour exam grades and the higher of the total of the best 10 quizzes or the lowest hour exam grade. See the table below.

P.S. The students in Section 05 may find their current point grades for the quizzes and exams by clicking Section 05 .

Exams:	Hour Exam 1	Thursday, Feb 18	Answers
	Hour Exam 2	Thursday, March 25
	Hour Exam 3	Thursday, April 22
	Final Exam		TBA

Grading:	your percentage	your final letter grade
	higher or equal to 90%	A
	lower than 90% but higher than or equal to 80%	B (89% = A-, 87-88% = B+)
	lower than 80% but higher than or equal to 70%	C (79% = B-, 77-78% = C+)
	lower than 70% but higher than or equal to 60%	D (69% = C-, 67-68% = D+)
	lower than 60%	F (59% = D-)
