The final exam is comprehensive but restricted to subjects appearing on mid term and new material following the mid-term. Instructor provides exam prep tests during course. These are optional but are averaged into the total course grade if they exceed the average exam grade. If they do not exceed the average exam grade, they have no effect. Overall grading is then weighted based on total questions of prep test exceedingaverage exam grade.
Instructor maintains a no contest grading policy.
This means if a test question answer is challenged and documented as to how a student came to the answer, the instructor considers the question and documentation only if changing it to correct changes the student's course letter grade. This policy is limited to a reasonable number of questions. Students performing course work, taking prep test achieve high exam grades. In order to successfully complete this course you must have access to the Internet and an Internet Web Browser. RVCC and instructor does not support installing these clients.
