Grading

There are 14 homeworks, 5 quizzes, two midterms and a final exam during the term.

Grading Scheme

$\displaystyle \begin{array}{lr}
\textrm{Best 12 homeworks at 20 points each} & ...
...extrm{200pts} \\
\textrm{Maximum Possible Score} & \textrm{800pts}
\end{array}$

Grading is curved and based on your total score only, provided you pass the final.
If you pass the final, grading will be in the A+ to B- range, unless your other work is severely lacking.
If you fail the final, grading will be in the range C+ to F.
