Syllabus
There will be four tests, a final exam, and seven
quizzes. All exams are cumulative, but stress will
be put in the last (new) chapters covered in class.
All will be given during class time. If you are
absent for a test, the percentage score from your
final test will be substituted for the missed test.
The percentage grade from your final test will
replace the lowest test score (if it is higher) and a
test was not missed. The lowest-grade two quizzes
out of seven will be dropped. There will be no make
up test!
Each test is 50 minutes and will each be worth 100
points. Each quiz will be worth 20 points. It will be
given at the end of the class.
Test Dates: Thursday, June 02, 2009; June 23; July
7; July 21; FINAL: 8/4/2009.
Quiz Dates: Mon, 5/23; Thurs, 5/26; Thurs, 6/09;
Thurs, 6/16; Thurs, 6/30; Thurs, 7/14; Thurs, 7/28.
Syllabus
Overall Course Grade will be primarily computed based
on the percentage points from 4 tests and the final
(5x100), plus five quizzes (5x20) = 600 total points.
Grading Summary:
4 Exams @ 100 points each
= 400 points
1- Final exam
= 100 points
5 best quizzes @ 20 points each = 100 points
Total = 600 points
Letter Grade: [90-100 % = A; 80-89% = B; 70-79% = C;
60-69% = D; < 60% = F]
NC does not apply to this course.

Syllabus
A student ID will be required for each exam. Calculators
will be needed for the exams and the final. Exam
questions will be taken from material covered in lecture,
assigned reading, and suggested problems. Exams,
including the final exam, will be computer graded. It is the
responsibility of the student to have a clean, flat, pink
NCS Test form (Scantron) with UCF logo, and a number 2
pencil for each exam. Students without the test form will
not be allowed to take the exam.
The instructor reserves the right to modify the
schedule, the testing procedure, and the grading basis if,
in the professional judgment of instructor, such
modification is in the best interest of fulfilling the course
objectives and assuring the academic integrity of the
course and the institution.
