Your grade will be calculated either as:

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).

Only under highly exceptional circumstances will a test be postponed to a later date.
