Important. You must bring your SUNY ID to the exams. There will be no make-ups for missed exams and homework. However, if you miss a midterm exam for an acceptable and documented reason, then the relevant mid-term will be `dropped' (ignored) in computing your course grade. A letter stating that you were seen by a doctor or other medical personnel is NOT an acceptable document, unless it states that it was reasonable/proper for you to seek medical attention and medically necessary for you to miss the exam (for privacy reasons this note/letter need not state anything beyond this). If you miss more than one midterm etc., we shall evaluate the circumstances. Incompletes will be granted only if documented circumstances beyond your control prevent you from taking the final exam.

Please note that the final's time is assigned by Registrar's. If you have a conflict with another class it probably means that the other class has placed the final in conflict with this class (please resolve this issue with the instructor in charge of the other class

Final covers All sections (see syllabus).

Maximum scores: Midterms I and II: 250pts each; each homework: 15pts (the best ten are used to grade); Final 350pts. Total maximum: 1000pts. The numerical grade will be converted to a final letter grade only after the final test has been graded. However, after each midterm an approximate letter grade will be given to you.

To do well in this class we strongly encourage you to: read the section to be covered before class, do the homework, plan to work on reading and homework for 6-8hours a week, start preparing for tests well in advance.


ETIQUETTE:

Punctuality: no late arrivals, no early departures: they are disruptive. If, occasionally, you need to arrive late and/or leave early, let the instructor know beforehand.

Silence: it is always a good rule and even more important for us since it is a big class; do show respect to other fellow students by not disturbing the class.

No cells (including text messaging etc.).

No food.
