You will not be able to refer to any books or other papers. You may use a calculator.

Getting Help and Exam III:

I will hold office hours Wednesday, May 7, 11-12, and Thursday, May 8, 11-12. My office is MCS 255.

You can pick up your third exam from Marina at one of her office hours during finals period. She will hold office hours Tuesday, May 6, 12-2, and Friday, May 9, 4-6. Marina's office is MCS 163.

Course Grades:

You can get your course grade from the Registrar's Office using the Student Link or TelGrade. Also, we will post the grades on the course WebCT site.

Your course grade will be computed according to the grading scheme that was given on the syllabus. That scheme already makes an allowance for one bad exam. No factors other than your performance on the exams and your discussion section grade are considered when I compute your overall course grade.

I try to be especially careful when I compute your grade. The computations are checked and double checked, so I would be surprised if there are mistakes. However, if you think that I have made a mistake in the computation, then you can check with me after May 15. I will not respond to email that arrives before then, and I will not respond to email that does not come from your BU account. Please don't send email that essentially amounts to begging for a slightly higher grade.

Good luck during finals and have a pleasant summer.
