Regular attendance to class lectures is required. The grade will be determined by two in-class exams, a cumulative final exam, and homework. Homework assignments and due dates will be posted on the MATH 243 Homework page. Homework assignments must be legible, and you are required to use proper grammatical English and follow the guidelines for clear and concise writing. The exams and homework will be weighted as follows:
| Homework | 20% | Grade computed from the weekly assignments |
| Exam 1 | 20% | Thursday, October 4 |

| Final | 40% | Thursday, December 13, 9:45 AM to 11:45 AM in Bilger 335. |
You must bring your UH student ID to every test. If Keller Hall is closed for any reason, we will meet by the steps of Hamilton Library. Only documented valid health related excuses will be accepted for missing an exam.
