The format of the tests will be similar to the WebAssignments used for homework except that you will have limited time and the number of submissions will be greatly reduced.You will be allowed to bring one page of notes, scrap/blank paper, and (optionally) a calculator to all tests and the final exam. Additionally, there will be links at the top of each test/exam that will allow you to link out directly to 4 online tools that you will be allowed to use during the tests. No other external website usage will be allowed during tests.
No tests are dropped. All students are required to take the final exam.
