Non-Project Oriented

For a non-project oriented class, the following is used for grading.

The final grade is determined by the following factors:

• 20% from all homework assignment. Yes, this is a very small percentage for seemingly a lot of work. This is because it is difficult to verify that everyone works on homework assignments independently. However, the time you spend doing homework assignments is not wasted. It will help prepare for the exams.
• 20% from the first test. This test is scheduled at about 1/3 of the semester.
• 20% from the second test. This test is scheduled at about 2/3 of the semester, and it is not intentionally comprehensive. For some classes, it is difficult to avoid earlier topics when asking questions about newer concepts.
• 40% from the final exam. This exam is scheduled at the end of semester, and it is intentionally comprehensive.
