Material at this level is tested as extra credit on the tests. Pretests are always given prior to each test. The test questions are then of the same type and difficulty as those on the pretest. Usually, a first pretest is given, on which students may seek help from the teacher, the text, their notes, and other students. Then a second pretest is given under test-like conditions.
Homework assignments are frequent but usually limited to ten problems or less.
There is no extra credit.
