Grade Policy, Homework, Exams

Take all your quizzes, remove the worst one, average the result.

Take your three midterms and quiz averages computed above, remove the worst number, average the result.

Take the resulting number, multiply it by 0.7 and add your final, multiplied by $0.3$.

Alternatively, take the resulting number, multiply it by 0.8 and add your final, multiplied by $0.2$.

Your numerical grade is the larger of the two numbers.

Extra Credit : Final Project, 10 percent, limited availability.

I will assign a grade based on the following:
$90\le g\le 100$ is A
$80\le g<90$ is B
$70\le g<80$ is C
$64\le g<70$ is D
$g<66$ is F

Grades modifiers will be used: $0\le g\le 3$ is ``-'', $3<g\le 6$ has no modifier, $6<g$ is ``+''. Homeworks and exams may contain problems for extra-credit.

There is no ``make up'' policy for homeworks or exams.
