Pre-requisite: Grade C or better in Calculus I.

 

Method of Evaluation: Your final grade in the course is based on:

1. Quizzes/worksheets/class participation (100 pts total)

2. Three in-class exams (100 points each):

         Exam 1 – Tuesday, Sep. 24;

         Exam 2 – Tuesday, Oct. 29;

         Exam 3 – Tuesday, Dec. 3;

3. FINAL EXAM (150 points) - comprehensive exam – Tue. Dec.10 12:00-14:00.

 

Grade-scale: The following percentages will guarantee the associated grade:

             > 90  : A    80-85 : B     65-75 : C      < 50 : F

             88-90 : A-   78-80 : B-    55-65 : D   

             85-88 : B+   75-78 : C+    50-55 : D-

 

NO MAKEUP QUIZZES OR EXAMS WILL BE GIVEN. If you have a documented medical or professional excuse for missing an exam, that percentage of your grade may be made up on the final.

 

Calculator: You may use one for your homework, but generally won’t need one, and you will not be allowed one (of any kind) during exams.

 

Drop deadline: Monday, March 18. Remember, if stop attending classes and don't wish to get an F, you must drop by this date.

 

Topics to be covered: Most of Chapters 6, 7, 8, 10, 11. Suggested problems for each section will be recorded on the website. You have to check the web page often for updates. You are expected to spend a minimum of 12 hours a week outside of class on homework and reading the corresponding sections of the text. DO NOT fall behind. This is a very dense course.
