The exams are multiple choice and will be machine graded. There are about fifteen questions in the 80-minute class exams. The exams are closed-book. You may bring an 8.5 x 11" sheet of notes in your own handwriting (no xerox copies).  

Bring a calculator, backup batteries and several pens and pencils to the exam.

No communication devices, cell phones, backpacks, etc. are allowed. If you bring them, you have to leave them at the front of the room during the exam. Students who have any communication devices on them during the exam, will receive a zero exam score.

If you need to miss an exam for a valid reason (such as an exam conflict or a medical problem), you may qualify for a make-up exam.  Contact Prof. Schnetzer in advance (if at all possible) and in any case, provide a written note explaining the reason for missing the exam.
