2nd Exam
Your grades are posted on Blackboard.
Makeup Exam
All students must take the makeup exam in the classroom PH-111. Check syllabus for date and time.

Check your exams to verify that there is no grading error. The TAs have the exams and the solution key.

At the end of the semester submit your class notes, homework, and all other work for my review.
Your current grade is based on 90 (A), 85 (B+), 80 (B), 75(C+), 70 (C), 60 (D), below 60 (F) scale.
If you do not submit your notes-homework package, I will NOT review your exam blue books.
The date for submission has been changed to Monday May 12.

Organize all material. First, class notes by lecture date. Make sure you highlight lecture date and / or chapter covered. Then homework, and finally sample tests.
Put everything in a binder or staple everything with a large staple so that all material is held as a single package. Pick up your homework from outside my office so that you can submit it in a binder.
Imagine this as the final project report. No loose papers. No out of sequence lectures or chapters. No copies of the answers that I have already posted on Blackboard.
Submit this material by 3 p.m. on Monday May 12.
Submit the material to my TA Rodrigo Duran.
Do NOT submit the material in Ind Eng Office.
Those who are authorized to take the makeup should submit their material to the TAs at the end of the makeup.

Syllabus - Check syllabus for course schedule, homework assignment, etc. Last update 03/17/2008
Roster Use your NetID and PW to check your registration and grades on Blackboard System
Blackboard System also has homework Questions and Answers and sample Tests.
Solutions to Sample Tests and FE questions are NOT posted. Do not ask TAs for these solutions. After you have solved these problems show them to one of the TAs and he/she will tell you if you solved them correctly.

You can take the make-up exam ONLY if:
You request a PRE-APPROVAL from me and get it (for reasons such as attending a funeral or a wedding or a job interview, etc.). You will need to email me one week before the exam, and get my permission for missing the exam. Having other exams or class projects is NOT an acceptable excuse.
There is an UNPLANNED emergency, such as falling sick, or getting in an accident on the way to the exam, etc. I will need a copy of medical certificate, accident report, etc. for verification.
Makeup cannot be used to improve an exam score already received.

The material you submitted to me can be picked up from my TAs during their office hours after Feb 10, 2008.
If you have a temporary grade, then you have an opportunity to take BOTH exams in Spring 2008. Your new exam scores will determine your permanent grade which will be submitted around May 20, 2008.
Unless you retake both exams, your temporary grade will automatically become your permanent grade. (Note: TZ becomes F).
Your permanent grade can never be lower than your temporary grade.
Please do NOT register in Spring 2008.
