MATH 307 D: Announcements

Nov 21, 2011

The Calendar has been modified to match our current schedule.

There will be a fourth QUIZ on December 2, 2011. It will cover from 3.7-6.3
I've decided to give a fourth quiz so that way you can get feedback on the last topics before the final. That way you have a better chance to do well in the Final which is worth 40% of the grade. The quiz grades (the %25) will be distributed among the 4 quizzes.
4 % Quiz 1 and %7 each for Quiz 2-4

Homework has been updated and distributed among the weeks that we have left. Check the due dates as they are not always the same day of the week.
