IMPORTANT NOTES:

• In order to pass the course, you should get at least 50% in the final.
• Failing to write the midterm results in losing the 25% assigned to the midterm. In the case of a medical emergency, the student may be given the permission to re-write the midterm.
• In the event of extraordinary circumstances beyond the University's control, the content and/or evaluation scheme in this course is subject to change.
• The midterms and the Final exams will be closed book. Only a crib sheet will be allowed. This will be an 8.5 by 11 sheet that you may write on its both sides.
