Grading policies

Homework will be collected roughly once a week.
Only 4 problems will be graded by the grader per week.
Each problem will be worth five points and so each
homework assignment will be graded on a scale of 0
to 20.

There will be two in-class midterm exams and one final exam.
No notes, books, or calculators will be allowed during exams.
Each hour exam will be worth 100 points, the homework
grade will be scaled to 100 points, and the final will
be worth 200 points, making a total of 500 points for the
whole course.
