Homework will not be collected, but you are supposed to do them all. REMEMBER: the more problems you do, the better you understand the material. Students are encouraged to work together on homework sets. There will be approximately one quiz per week in the discussion session on Thursday (Starting from the second week). There are two to four short questions in one quiz. The quiz problems will be either the same as, or very similar to those from the homework. Thus, if a student has made a good attempt at the homework, he/she should do well on the quiz. One lowest quiz grades will be dropped from the final grade calculation. There will no quiz on two midterm weeks, and last week prior to the final exam.

Exams: There will be two midterm exams and a comprehensive final exam.
Midterm 1: Friday, January 30
Midterm 2: Friday, February 27
Final exam: Monday, March 16, 8:00AM - 10:00AM

The exams are "closed book" – no books, notes, calculators, etc.
Picture I.D. is required and must be presented upon request.
There are no early exams. A late exam is only possible for a legitimate documented reason. If approved, the maximum possible score on a late exam is a 70. Note that student athletes, participating in a UCI athletic event and with appropriate documentation, are exempt from this rule.
You must take your exams with the lecture for which you are registered.
