Tests:
Five tests on the chapters covered during the term will be given. Additionally, a Final
Exam consisting of 20 random questions from previous assignments or tests will be given on
week 8. Because of the eight-week schedule, this will amount to a test about every week. Tests
will cover two to four chapters at a time and will be about 10 to 20 questions each. Scores on
your tests will be combined with scores on your assignments to make up your total grade. Tests
will allow only 1 attempt and they are not adaptive. Students will only be permitted to submit
one answer.
