    If you'd like to get an idea of what my questions are like, you may DOWNLOAD LAST YEAR'S EXAM I here. I am not including the answers, as I feel this would be direct your studying energies in a bad way. The exam is meant only as an example of the types of questions you might expect, and for you to use to LOOK UP ANSWERS AND PRACTICE!

    LAST CHANCE TO MAKE UP ANY MISSED EXAM will be on
  • Tuesday, December 10 at 2:00pm
  • Come to SA 110, the laboratory just off the Cox Building main lobby. This is where the make up exams will be given.
  • If you need to take a make up exam, DO NOT MISS THIS VERY LAST CHANCE. If you are coming to take a make up exam, please email me one day in advance and tell me which exam you are making up.

  • If you miss the final exam, provide me a valid excuse (HINT: "I made early plane reservations" is not a valid excuse.) within one day of missing the final exam and are passing the course at the time of the final, you will be given a grade of "I" (Incomplete) for the course, and have one year to take the final exam. If you fail to do so, the "I" will automatically change to an "F."

  • If you miss the final exam and do not have a valid excuse, your final point total will be calculated based on whatever exams you did take, not counting the final. You get a ZERO for the final.

  • If you miss the final exam and are not passing the course at the time of the final exam, you will receive an "F" for the course. So study hard and do the best you can!



    THE HONOR CODE IS TAKEN SERIOUSLY HERE. IF YOU ARE CAUGHT CHEATING, YOU WILL BE GIVEN A FINAL GRADE OF "F" FOR THE COURSE AND THE MATTER WILL BE TURNED OVER TO TO THE HONOR COUNCIL.
