*An excused change is one caused by a regularly scheduled
(in the course schedule) class or lab class. NOT an organization meeting
or job. If you have a job make plans now to be present at the mid term
exams.
Policy on Exam Coverage:
You will be responsible for all material
covered up to the Friday lecture the week before each midterm. That way
you will be able to think about the material for almost an entire week
before you are tested on it. Also, the pace of the class can vary, so
do not be concerned if we are not on the same schedule as descibed below
under "proposed exam topics". The bottom line is that you are
only responsible for the material covered in the previous Friday's lecture,
NO MATTER WHAT THE SCHEDULE IN THE SYLLABUS SAYS ABOUT "UNITS"
COVERED ON EACH MIDTERM.
Regrades:
Requests for regrades will be accepted up
to one week after each exam is returned. HOWEVER,
TO BE REGRADED, THE EXAM MUST BE TAKEN IN INK, NOT PENCIL. In
addition, we generally regrade entire exams, not just individual questions.
When requesting a regrade on an exam, it is important to attach a brief
note on the front of the exam indicating the problem in question, as well
as your concern about the grading. Although we generally look over the
entire exam, your note will help to direct our attention to where it is
needed most. Tip: always check the addition of points on the back of your
exam. Properly graded exams can sometimes have their points added incorrectly!!
