There are very limited provisions for make-up exams. If you think there may be circumstances sufficiently extreme to cause you to miss an exam, then the instructor must be informed in advance . Assignments and exams are different every semester, so there are no absolute standards for performance. During the semester you will have information on your numerical average, and the class numerical average, but letter grades are not determined until after the final exam . Information on the final determination of letter grades will only be given after the semester is over and you have seen your grade.
Every attempt is made to issue a fair grade, treating all students in a like manner.
Under no circumstances will a student's grade be arbitrarily advanced because of personal circumstances. If personal circumstances are not permitting you to come to lectures, study the material, take the exams, and do the assignments then you should drop the course. The form is available from the instructor or on the bulletin board just outside ENS-508. In this situation, the whole exam may be re-graded. Any re-grading request must be made within a week after the examination is returned .
