ADDITIONAL NOTES
MATH 1342
FALL 2008
Text is Brase & Brase, Understanding Statistics, Fourth Edition.
Homework counts 5 points per section. Each section is due on or before the day
of the exam over that section. Late homework gets zero credit. Please bind problems
from the same section, not different sections. Please do not submit homework along with
daily problems.
Lowest course test grade (not the final exam) will be dropped. There will be no
makeup or “early bird” exams. Instructor reserves the right to deduct test points for
missing steps, even if final answer is correct.
Date/time of final exam is December 10. There will be no “early bird” or makeup
final.
For E=course test average, H=homework average, D=daily average, and F=final
exam, the course percentage C= .40E + .20H + .15D + .25F. To determine the course
grade, the course percentage will be compared to this scale:
A: 90%-100%
B: 80%-89%
C: 70%-79%
D: 60%-69%
F: 0%-59%
Notice that with this system, a score of 100 on every test and the final exam, combined
with no homework or daily work, yields a course percentage of 65%.
College regs apply to Academic Integrity, ADA, Disciplinary Action and other
issues not covered above.
