Grade Policy

The final grade you earn is the weighted average of:

  • Mid-term exams and final exam (25% each, 75% total)
  • Homework (20%)
  • In-class quizzes (5%)

There will be no grading on a curve. The grade calculated in this manner is the minimum grade you have earned. Students who show a significant improvement in performance during the course (doing poor initially but improving during the semester) might earn a higher grade. Class participation may also improve your final grade.
