Help. Come to the office hours or ask during the review session.

 

Missing the exam. If you have a valid reason to miss the exam, please e-mail me, and we might figure out something. Remember the rule of thumb: the earlier you e-mail me, the more chances the issue will be resolved.

 

Additional time. This refers only to the students who have documentation from the DSS (Disability Support Services) that grants them additional time on the exam. You will need to start writing the midterm earlier than others; please, e-mail me well before Midterm 1, and I will set up a time and place when you can come and start working on the midterm.

 

Date. Midterm 1 will be held on Friday, February 25th.

 

Time. From 5pm to 6pm.

 

Place. Wilson Hall, Room 102 (WILSON102)

 

Questions. If during the midterm you have a question then come and ask.

 

No Calculators. No calculators are allowed during the exam.

 

No Notes. The exam is ‘closed book’, so no books, notes or cheat-sheets are allowed during the exam.

 

 

Grading. Graded midterms will be retuned in class on

Monday, February 28th.

 

Regrading. Review your graded midterms in Monday’s class, and if you have any question about grading or grader’s comments then ask me right after the class. Note:

1. You can only ask for regarding on Monday’s class.

2. You will not get points if you just guessed the answer, without showing work.

3. You will not get points for just writing down definitions at large, rather you should work on the very problem in the midterm.

4. You are discouraged to use technique, which wasn’t covered in the class yet.

 

Average.  25 out of 30.
