Exams are closed book and closed notes.
Make-ups will not be permitted, but I'll substitute one half of your final exam score for your worst midterm exam score if it can improve your result. The quizzes will be closed book, closed notes, and will consist of problems taken from the homework assigned since the previous quiz. Each quiz is worth 25 points. The lowest quiz grade will be discarded, so you will have 250 possible points on quizzes. A missed quiz cannot be made up, but will instead count as your lowest grade.
