Exam Policy

  • You must bring photo ID with you to all the exams. If you do not have photo ID your grade will be a zero for that exam.
  • There are no makeup exams. If you miss an exam your final counts 60%.
  • If you miss the final, your grade will be "F".
  • There are absolutely no exceptions to the above grading policy.
  • You may not use a calculator or other electronic device.
  • You may use one 8.5 x 11 inch page of handwritten notes. (Both sides are okay, but no photocopies are allowed.)
  • You may not use any other notes or books.

Academic Integrity:  If you violate the instructions of a midterm or communicate in any way with any other student during a midterm, you will receive a zero on that midterm, and the zero will not be dropped when calculating your cumulative course average. Additionally, you will face further disciplinary action.

Regrades:  Midterm exams and graded MATLAB assignments will be returned in the discussion sections.  If you find a grading or point totalling error on an exam or MATLAB assignment, you must return it immediately to your TA.  Regrade requests will not be considered once the exam or assignment leaves the room.  If you do not retrieve your graded exam or assignment during discussion section, you must arrange to pick it up from your TA within one week after it was returned in order for any regrade request to be considered.
