Important Notes:

1. There will be no make-ups. This is why the maximum grade is 120 out of 100.

2. Attendance to lectures can be taken from time-to-time by the instructor. This will return as a bonus grade to the student.

3. Missing experiments more than once will result in failure. (No excuses will be accepted except for the vital injury of the student!) The student will get a zero for the missed experiment and assignments.

4. Please note that the dates of all exams will be posted here very soon. Last minute (week) requests for changing these dates will not be considered even though you have another exam on that date.
