(2) Ontario OAC Calculus, or Carleton University 69.007*, or approved equivalent. Students who have not passed the prerequisite course may be automatically de-registered during the term. Those that have done poorly in the prerequisites are strongly urged to take 69.007* before attempting 69.107*. Do get advice from the instructor or from the Mathematics Undergraduate Advisor Ken Small, in 4380 Herzberg Building.
 

EVALUATION
Your grade will be calculated either as:

(i) Term Mark 40%;
(ii) Final Examination 60%
OR,
(iii)Final Examination 100% whichever is better.
In any event, your final course grade is the larger of the two numbers: A and B where A=(i)+(ii) and B=(iii).

If you do all the weekly quizzes, homework and tests, as well as the sample tests and final exams on this website, you'll likely pass (maybe even Ace it!).
 

TERM MARK:
The term mark will be derived from:
(a) 3 Tests; BUT we choose the best 2/3, for (20/40);
(b) 2 BIG Assignments (20/40).

Note:The "best x of y" rules allow you to miss some of the term events for any reason (medical or otherwise).
Only under highly exceptional circumstances will a test be postponed to a later date.

FAQ on Tutorials

Where do I go? Normally your section is given to you at registration time. Otherwise, this depends on your section letter and/or on the first letter of your family name; see the preceding paragraph for details about which room you'll go to.

Do I HAVE to go? Well, if you want to pass those tests and get your assignments to count on your behalf, then, YES, do go. If all you want to do is write the final exam, then that's OK, too; see the EVALUATION item above.

Who is my T.A.? Go the required class and ask him/her. There are too many changes for us to confirm TA's during the first few weeks of classes.
