Grades -- This is old information that will be updated

Your grade is determined by how you do relative to the class as a whole. All math 124 classes will take the same final exam. The median grade is usually about 2.9. If the whole class does particularly well (or badly) the median will move up (or down).

The outline below may change slightly.

Scientific Calculator Required
No Graphing/Symbolic Calculators Allowed.

For the final exam, you should have a scientific calculator capable of computing trig functions, exponentials, and logarithms. Anything that graphs or does symbolic computations is not allowed. This is a department wide decision and is not negotiable, but I am certainly willing to explain it.

For quizzes and midterms, you will not need a calculator at all, but you may bring a scientific calculator if you wish.

Notes: What's allowed

  • Quizzes: No notes
  • Midterms : 1 side of 1 (8.5 x 11) page of notes, but no worked problems
  • Finals : 2 sides of 1 (8.5 x 11) page
