| Midterm | You will have a midterm in class on Tuesday 5th week (Feb 6) in class. |
| Final |
Wednesday Finals week (March 21st) 12:15 -- 3:15 in
380-Y.
NOTE: Your final is in 380-Y, and NOT in the regular class room. |
Grading Your final grade will be the average of your homework, midterm and final with the midterm counting as 30%, final 50% and your homework 20%.
Homework Homework is due every week on Thursday at the beginning of class. Late homework will NEVER be accepted. However to accommodate for unusual circumstances (e.g. too much beer), one homework will not count towards your grade. Working in groups is encouraged, but blindly copying will certainly guarantee miserable performance on all exams.
Extra credit There is NONE! Homework problems marked with a * are optional. Do NOT turn them in, as you will receive no credit for them. Homework problems marked with two stars (**) are 'interesting' challenge problems. If you manage solving these, come show it to me. Do not turn these in with regular homework. Three star problems are Ph. D. Thesis material. Remember that these problems are worth no extra credit. They're only there for betterment of your soul.
Approximate grades for the midterm are as follows: 60 or more earns an "A". 50 -- 59 earns a "B". 40 -- 49 earns a C.
About grading: Dung graded the first few problems of everyone (in black), and I graded the rest (for everyone) in red. If you have a question about your score on a particular problem, then please ask the person who graded it. If Dung graded a problem, ask him. If I graded a problem ask me. This is to maintain consistency, since Dung and I gave different different amounts of partial credit to solutions. (Remember that both Dung and I graded the SAME questions for EVERYONE. Thus even though we gave different amounts of partial credit, it was done consistently for EVERYONE, and hence will not affect your grade.)
Solutions are meant to be found not given.
Feedback at any time (either anonymous or signed) is always appreciated. You can use this form to send me (or your course assistant) anonymous (or signed) feedback.
