Important Announcements from the Main Page

• In order to pass the course a minimum mark of 40% on the final exam is required and you must pass (≥ 50%) at least three of the quizzes OR the final exam.
• For your Quizzes portion only the best 5 of your quizzes count towards your final grade. This means you can fail or miss one quiz without consequences.
• Due to a small mistake in the marking scheme of quiz 1 the total number of points was reduced to 8. The marks on Connect have been updated accordingly.
• For regrading requests, we only accept hardcopies and they will be accepted no earlier than 24 hours after quizzes have been returned and no later than 10 days afterwards.
