Quizzes/Home assignments/Class Participation will count as twenty (20) percent of the final grade. The final exam will be a comprehensive exam that will count as twenty (20) percent of the overall grade. The dates of the tests have already been tentatively scheduled. If you miss a test, you must present a doctor’s certificate in order to receive a makeup. No other make-ups will be given. An unexcused absence during a test will result in a grade of zero. Missing the final exam will result in a grade of zero. Summary of how your Final Grade will be determined: Four (4) in-class Tests - 60 Percent (%) Quizzes/Homework Assignments/Class Participation - 20 Percent (%) Final Exam - 20 Percent (%) 100 % Grading Scheme showing assignment of letter grades: 95- 100 A 90 –94 A- 87 - 89 B+ 83 – 86 B 80 - 82 B- 77 - 79 C+ 73 – 76 C 70 - 72 C- 65 - 69 D+ 60 – 64 D 0 - 59 F Course Requirements: Classes are scheduled for Tuesdays and Thursdays 5:30 to 6:45 P.M. All students are required to attend class regularly and punctually. Students are also expected to participate fully in class discussions and problem solving sessions.
