Lecture Examinations:
Lecture examinations account for 400 out of the 800
points possible for the course.
Midterms
There are two midterms, each is worth 100 points. The
format of each midterm will be described in class.
Final
The final exam will be worth 200 points.
Make-up
lecture examinations
Midterm make-up exams will be permitted only for those
who notify the head instructor in advance that they will be
unable to take the scheduled exam. Exceptions will be made
for students who for some important and unforeseeable reason
are unable to take the scheduled exam (medical slip or other
documentation required). Unless prior arrangements have been
made, it is the student's responsibility to inform the head
instructor within 48 hours of a missed lecture exam (unless
for compelling reasons you are unable to do so).
NOTE: Make-up exams will be given for athletic reasons
only when there is a direct, unavoidable game
conflict (Note from coach required). Make-up exams will not
be given to accommodate practice schedules, nor for time
constraints caused by demands placed on your study time by
other classes or activities.
Regrade
Requests
For both lecture and laboratory
work, regrades will be considered only if the original was
written in pen. Some exams may be photocopied before they
are returned.
If you feel you were graded incorrectly on an exam, you
should pursue the following procedure to obtain a regrade:
1) Refer to the answer key (which will be posted the day
of the exam), to make sure you know what the correct answer
is.
2) If you still feel that your answer was incorrectly
graded, discuss it with your teaching assistant.
3) If this does not clear things up, return the exam to
your teaching assistant along with a
written explanation of why you
feel you should have received more points, and including
reference to the posted answer key. He or she will pass it
along to the lecturer.
Important Note: The firm deadline for regrade requests is
ONE WEEK after the graded exam was made available
(regardless of when you actually pick it up.
