There is approximately 20 pages of reading per week. This will vary from quarter to quarter, but usually there will be 5 short quizzes that are closed book and closed notes. In addition, there are 3 midquarter exams as well as a final exam. All of the exams are cumulative. Students are graded on the basis of their performance on the assigned homework problem, mid-quarter exams, quizzes and the final exam.
Partial credit is given on all exams and quizzes.
Grades of incompletes are not given unless there is an extenuating circumstance that does not allow a student to finish a small portion of the course.
