Assignments: 30%
Midterm 1: 20%, Midterm 2: 20%, Final: 30%. Grading formula:
HW = (HW1 + HW2 + HW3) / 3
Overall = 0.3 * HW + 0.2 * M1 + 0.2 * M2 + 0.3 * F
HW2, M2 etc are exactly the number you got, so if you got 112, that is
what you put in.Standard 90/80/70/60 scale will be used for final grades (curved if necessary). All the exams are open book, open notes. |
