Course Policies
Grading (credit) Grades in this class come from your performance on exams. Grades are
Criteria structured as follows:
4 Exams 250 Points
Total 1000 Points
Letter grades will be assigned on the following point scale. This course does
not adopt the +/- option in final course grading.
90% and Above A
80% to 89% B
70% to 79% C
Below 70% F
In the real world, your employer will not ask you to perform statistical
calculation “without referring to your notes;” neither will I. Your exams will
be open note / open book. Resist the temptation to think these will be easy.
Open book tests are generally harder because the answer is not in the book.
While you may rely liberally on your notes and text for exams, you may not
rely on your neighbor (see Cheating).
These descriptions and timelines are subject to change at the discretion of the Professor. The
most recent, date, time and policy addenda announced in class or through e-mail take
precedent over any material published in this syllabus.
