Oct. 27 Exam 2 Scores on Exam 2 and your class grade thus far

Your overall percentage considers the best 3 quiz scores out of 5. The "0"s for quizzes denote those that have been dropped.



 Comments: Drop deadline is on Monday, Oct. 31.
If your overall percentage is far from the 65% passing line (e.g. below 60%),
then you should consider dropping and retaking the class next semester.
You can also take the new preparatory course Precalculus Algebra.
If your score is around 65%, then  it is a difficult decision, but if you decide to stay,
you have to work hard on this last part of the course. This is actually valid for everyone.
Generally, the grades on the final are not better than the grades on the midterm exams.
