EXAMINATIONS:

• There will be three exams (50 minutes each) with each exam being preceded by a 50-minute review session.

• Makeup exams will be given in case of illness or other emergency. A letter from the McKinley Health Center or the Emergency Dean will be required.

• Disability accommodations: will be provided on request (Please contact Dr. Grosman).

• Final exam: there will NOT be a comprehensive final exam.

NOTE: Attendance of lectures is required, and announcements made in class are considered official. If there is a conflict with the scheduled exam hour, the student must inform Dr. Grosman at least 14 days prior to the exam date.

FINAL GRADE: Each of the three exams will be assigned a numerical grade. Consideration of the three marks will result in a final letter grade. The class median will be the border between B and C (thus, approximately half the class will have grades greater or equal to B). Grades of A or D will be given to students with scores about one standard deviation above or below the class median, respectively.
