Examinations: There will be three written exams given during regular class time and one comprehensive make-up exam given at the final exam time indicated in the course schedule. Check for room number on the Finals schedule. Each exam, including the comprehensive make-up, is worth 100 points and will count as 30 % of your total grade. After the third exam, grades will be posted. Students who missed an exam or who would like to improve their grade for the course should take the make-up exam. If you take the make-up exam your final grade will not be lower than the grade posted after the third exam regardless of your performance on the make-up exam. Your three best exam scores and the grades from the assignments will be used to determine your grade for the course.
There will be several styles of questions in the exam e.g. multiple choice, fill in the blank, matching, true - false, labeling the diagram, and those requiring a short answer.

Missed Exam: A missed exam will be scored as a zero, which will be replaced by the score on the comprehensive make-up exam given at the time of the final. There will be no other means of making up missed exams.
