Prerequisites
You will be dropped from this course if you have not satisfied the Mathematics
Placement Requirement (MPR) administered by the Learning Skills Center. The
which can be satisfied in either of the following ways:
- passing Math 12 with a grade of at least C (not C-)
- passing Math 16A with a grade of at least C-
- receiving a diagnostic score of at least 35 with at least 3 on
the trigonometric component of the Precalculus Exam
Students who enroll in this class without satisfying the MPR will be
administratively dropped. No exceptions to this policy are permitted.
During lectures
Please switch off your cellphone
before the lecture starts.
Please bear in mind that talking, newspaper reading, etc. disrupt the
lectures.
No food or drink is allowed in class.
Exams
Please bring your student ID card. No books, calculators, etc. are
allowed in exams. Please be careful in your answers.
Little or no partial credit will
be given for incorrect answers in most case. Show all work for full
credit. In most cases, a correct answer with no supporting work will
NOT receive full credit. There will
be no make-up exams. A missed exam counts as 0 points. If you
miss the midterm for a documented medical
reason, the midterm will not
count and its weight will be added to the final.
Sudents taking two exams and students who need a longer
period of time (as determined by the Student Disability Center):
you needed to notify Marion (the lead TA) and follow her directions.
