EXAMS: There will be two 75-minute midterm exams in GSB 2.126 and a final exam (location announced in November). See also HERE. The course grade is obtained via averaging from the number grades on the three exams and the homework. Midterm 1: Thu Sep 21, 12:30 pm - 1:45 pm (weight 25%) Midterm 2: Thu Oct 26, 12:30 pm - 1:45 pm (weight 25%) Final: Fri Dec 8, 8:00 am - 10:00 am (weight 35%) Homework: (weight 15%) No make-up exams are given, except in cases of documented illness or emergencies. For students with documented special needs, a time extension can be arranged if requested at least 10 days before the exam. GRADING: Credit will be given mainly for valid, relevant, and comprehensible solution steps. Just answers receive little or no credit. Each exam is graded on a scale from 0 to 60 points and is "curved" to a number grade from 0 to 100 via an affine function (example: grade = 10 + 1.5 * points). The "curve" will be made public after the exam is graded. The correspondence between number grades and letter grades is 93 -100 A 89 - 92 A- 85 - 88 B+ 81 - 84 B 77 - 80 B- 73 - 76 C+ 69 - 72 C 65 - 68 C- 61 - 64 D+ 57 - 60 D 53 - 56 D- 0 - 52 F Graded exams are returned in class roughly a week after the exam. (Recall that class attendance is mandatory.)
