Exams
There will be two midterm exams, each with an in class and a take home portion. The take home portion will resemble the homework but you are not allowed to collaborate on the midterm exams. The lowest of your four scores (two in-class and two take-home exams) will be dropped.
There will be a final exam at the end of the semester.
Homework
Homework will be assigned weekly and due on Fridays at the start of class. You may (and are in fact encouraged) to work together solving homework problems but you must write up your own solutions to hand in. The lowest two homework scores will be dropped. Homework problems will be assigned from the textbook for the most part.
