The approximate date for the tests will be, Feb 9/10, Mar 2/3, and Apr 6/7. Please note, the dates and material are subject to change. Details on the tests will be formalized a week or two before the test in class.
Students who complete and understand the homework assignments before the test on the material used in that homework will have a significant advantage on the tests over students who have not done this work.
Students are expected to take the tests at the scheduled dates. Students who fail to take a test for trivial reasons will be given a score of 0. If a make-up test is given, it will not necessarily be equivalent in content or difficulty to the original test. I may, at my option, use the final exam score in place of a missed test grade.
Students may prepare a "cheat-sheet" for each test. This cheat-sheet may contain formulas, equations, and definitions. It may not contain worked problems.
