The course is based on two mid-term quizzes, one final exam, and 7 weekly problem sets. You may miss one problem sets for illness or any other reason. This means that we count the best 6 out of the 7 problem sets. We will use our 14.02 webpage to distribute problem sets and solutions, past exams, and other announcements. We will also use the 14.02-students public mailing list to distribute important announcements and room changes.
Problem sets are due in class on the due date.
You are required to turn in a hard copy of your solutions. You may discuss ideas of how to answer questions with your friends, but you must write up answers on your own. Simply copying other person's work is considered cheating, and will be penalized accordingly. We will follow this policy strictly since we already allow you to drop 1 out of 7 problem sets. While the exam dates are firm, problem set dates are subject to change.
