Requirements. The semester grade will be based on two examinations (i.e,, one midterm and a final), and five lab assignments. Examinations will be comprehensive and essay. Pleased be advised that it is my policy NOT to arrange make-up exams; two mid-terms will be given during the semester; the lowest midterm score will be dropped. You may not drop the final exam for the course. Each exam will constitute 20% of the semester grade.
Lab assignments are due on the date indicated in the syllabus. You will be allowed a week grace period to complete each assignment. After the grace period has expired, late assignments will be penalized. Each lab assignment will be worth a total of 30 points. The lab assignments collectively will constitute 50% of the semester grade. Lab assignments will be graded on three criteria:
