Tests:

There will be four 50-minute tests  on September 27, October 15, November 5, and November 26. You are expected to take all the tests. No make up, early or delayed tests. Any missing test will be counted as zero. The average of best three tests out of four tests will count for 34% of your final mark. It is your responsibility to pick up your tests in the following tutorial hours. You must bring your student card to each test and place it on the desk where it is visible.

Tutorial Attendance:

There will be EIGHT tutorials that you need to attend. You are  expected to attend them all. You will be requested to work in teams of 3--4 students on sets of problems handed out to you. Tutorial work will be handed in at the end of the tutorial hour for grading. The best 6 tutorial marks will be counted in the term mark. Tutorials start on  Friday September 17. Further organizational details will be given in class. The tutorial attendance will count 6% of your final mark.

Homework:

Selected exercises, mainly from the text, will be assigned in class. These exercises are not to be handed in and will not be graded. However, to succeed in the course it is absolutely essential that you do the exercises on a regular basis.

Final Examination:

This is a three hour exam scheduled by the University and will take place sometime during the examination period December11--23, 2004. It is the responsibility of each student to be available at the time of the examination. In particular, no travel plans for the examination period in April should be made until the examination schedule is published.

Course Work Evaluation: 

Calculators:

You may use a non-programmable calculator for the tests and the final examination in this course. I reserve the right to disallow any calculator.

Withdrawal:
