INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE FIRST EXAM

Posted October 27 at 11:00 A.M.

 

In General

            The second exam occurs on November 3.  It covers all the material (assigned readings and class presentations) in Weeks 7-11.  It is worth 100 points out of 700 in the class.

            The exam has two parts.  The first part is a take-home essay due at 8 A.M. on Monday  November 3.  Detailed instructions are available on the course website.  The essay is worth 50 points.  The deadline is the deadline: late work won’t receive credit. The second part is an in-class test, given in class on Monday  November 3.  It is worth 50 points.  Instructions have been posted for this part of the exam.  Plan to take it as scheduled.  Make-up exams are normally unavailable in this class.

            Please read the instructions carefully and let me know about any questions or concerns you may have.  We can discuss your questions or concerns in class or during my office hours. 

About the Exam

            We have covered a lot of material.  The instructions for the in-class test should, however, help you to focus your effort effectively.  The exam will be flexible.  It is designed to help you show what you know.  Perfection is not expected.  Do as much as you can, as well as you can.

            You may bring notes to the in-class test: one sheet of 8.5X11 paper with as much information as you want, front and back.  No other notes or memory-assist devices of any kind whatsoever are permitted, however.  Also: no books!
