Dartmouth math department page

FINAL NOTES: The take-home portion of the final was distributed last Friday. It is due at the in-class final, which is Monday, June 5th from 9:00-11:00 a.m. in Bradley 102. I will be there at 8:30 if you would like to start early. If you have any questions about the take-home final, feel free to ask me. I won't give hints that are quite as helpful as I would on homework problems, but it can't hurt to ask.

Grade: Your grade will be determined as follows:

Category                 Weight         
----------------------------------     
homework and quizzes      30%            
mid-term exam             30%       
final exam                40%                                                  

Exams: The date, time, and format of both exams are yet to be determined.

Makeup policy: Homework will be assigned (almost) every class period, and will be due at the next class meeting. No late homework will be accepted for any reason, but your three lowest homework scores will be dropped before computing your grade. Thus you may miss up to three homework assignments without penalty.

Makeup tests will only be given in case of legitimate emergencies.

Honor policy:

Students with disabilities: I encourage students with disabilities, including "invisible" disabilities like chronic diseases and learning disabilities, to discuss with me any appropriate accommodations that might be helpful.
