Note: The lab schedule is subject to change.
Your laboratory grade counts twenty-five percent (25%) of your final course grade. In general, a lab test will be given at the beginning of each lab on the preceding lab. Each lab test will be worth 10 lab points and will consist of questions in different formats, depending on the material. Twelve "lab tests" will be given, and the lowest score will be dropped - giving 110 lab points for those tests. However, your lab grade for each of the last four labs will be based on your work in the lab, plus your submitted lab report at the end of the lab, and that lab grade will count the same as one lab test. Note that the supplemental reading assignment is due April 3rd, 4th, or 5th, depending on your regular lab day, and is worth 25 lab points. Your final lab grade will be a percentage score based on the total of 135 lab points, i.e., your lab grade will be (lab points earned)/135. (Note that the supplemental reading assignment counts 25/135 = 18.52% of your lab grade.)
You may take an essay makeup test for any of the first eight lab tests
you miss at the end of your supplemental reading assignment lab, i.e., April 3rd,
4th, or 5th, depending on your regular lab day, when the class has
finished with the supplemental reading oral presentations.
Makeup lab tests for the first eight labs are
