EXAM DATES & TIMES

 

Online chapter tests and in-class Exams are clearly announced in terms of dates, times, and deadlines in the schedule below and in DVista. 

 

It is the responsibility of students to read components of this syllabus, updates, and announcements of assignments regularly in DVista, in order to know the dates and times of online tests, and other course assignments and activities.

 

The five in-class exams are to be taken on Tuesdays, on the same dates mentioned below, at 12:15-1:30 am, in Room 301 of the Liberal Arts Building, at the DSC campus.

 

There will be a session in the first day of classes to introduce the course syllabus, policies, requirements, and schedule. Students are also required to answer a quiz about the syllabus on DVista.

 

MAKE-UP EXAMS

 

Make-up exams can be requested for extremely difficult circumstances. If an exam is justifiably missed (e.g. physical injury or death in the family), a student may ask for a make-up exam to be scheduled as soon as possible. This does not apply to the online tests, open-book tests, and the last in-class exam
