The grading scale for the course will be no stricter than 90-100% A- or better, 80-90% B- or better, 70-80% C- or better, 60-70% D- or better, 0 - 60% F.
This grading scale may be relaxed, depending on the overall class performance and the performance of this class as compared to other MTH 306 classes I have taught.
The weighting of the graded components is as follows:
Activity |
Percentage of Course Grade |
| Recitation Work and Homework | 15% |
| Midterm Exam * | 20% |
| Five online Quizzes ** (given on the course Blackboard site) | 30% |
| Final Exam *** | 35% |
The final exam will be comprehensive.
* There will be no conflict or makeup midterm exams. If you miss the in-class midterm, your final exam will count 55% of your course grade.
** You should think of the quizzes as comprising a running midterm.
*** A conflict final exam will be scheduled only in very exceptional circumstances. Travel arrangements that conflict with the final exam are not exceptional circumstances.
