EXAMINATIONS

All the examinations given in this course are closed books and closed notes. Any objection to the grades in an examination may be placed within one week upon the announcement of the exam scores. You will be informed about the outcome in a week following your objection. Definitely no inquiries or objections with regard to grades will be accepted beyond this one-week period.

 

MAKE-UP EXAMINATIONS

Make-up exams may be given to those who have valid excuses which are approved by the department. If you believe that you are eligible to take any of the make-up exams, you must contact with the course instructor within one week after the regular exam date. Do not be surprised if you find comparatively difficult questions in make-ups.

 

PRESENTATIONS

Your effort on book presentation will be dominant on your grade (35 percent). Everybody will present one subject which will be assigned by the lecturer. You are expected to prepare presentation notes. You’ll get your credits both from presentation and notes.
