Grading:
Term mark calculated with following weighting: Test 1(1 hour)-weighting: 1/4 Test 2 (2 hours)- weighting: 2/4 Test 3 (1 hour)- weighting: 1/4 a) For those students that do all 3 tests: Final Mark= 60% of max(Term Mark, Final Exam) + 40% of min(Term Mark, Final Exam) b) For those students that miss any tests: No make-up tests will be given. If a student misses any test and provides an acceptable reason, for example, being ill (together with a doctor's note), then the weighting for that component will be added to the weighting for the final (40%).

Behavior:
All cell phones and pagers are to be shut off during class. Students are responsible for familiarizing themselves with York University policies and regulations concerning academic conduct. These can be found in the undergraduate programme calendar. Take special note of the Senate policy on academic honesty, which can be found at http://www.yorku.ca/secretariat/policies/document.php?document=69 Cheating and/or impersonation are dealt with severely. Photo identification and signing-in will be required at all tests and final.
