Spring 2001
(1) Homework assignments, about 40% of final grade.
(2) Midterm (one hour and a half), about 20%.
(3) Final (two hours), about 40%.
Final grade for the course is based on a "curve", though it is possible that the average final grade for the whole class will be an A- or a B+ just as it is possible that it will be a C or a C-.
You will be given about 2 weeks to do each assignment, Assignments turned in late will be heavily penalized. Typically you will loose 10% per day for late work.
Accepted, provided it is acknowledged. If you have a joint solution for a homework problem, mention the name of your partner at the beginning of the solution you hand in.
Problems should be written up individually, even if the solution was a collaboration.
3 hours of lecture per week + 9 hours of studying on your own per week (reviewing lecture notes, homework problems, additional material) -- for a total of 12 hours per week.
