Final Exam:
No "make-up" exams or early or late
final exams. Missed exams excused only with documented serious
illness. Excused absence requires completion of that exam by the next class
meeting. Grade assigned will be the lesser of the actual score or the score
based on the average relative standing in the class. (E.g., a student scoring
1.1 times class average on exams taken gets a score for the missed exam equal
to 1.1 times the average on that exam unless the graded exam score is lower.)
Reading: Recommended: CD-ROM:
The Chemistry of Life, Robert Thornton, Benjamin Cummings, 1998 (Windows
