Final Exam - 2-hour (worth 40%)

Sunday, April 22nd at 7:00 pmThames Hall Gym

2-hour ~150 questionsMultiple Choice, True or False

Mostly memorization

NOTE: To be eligible to pass the course, a student must obtain:

• a weighted average of at least 45% on the major assignment and final exams

AND the weighted average of the assignment marks must be at least 45 %.

Here’s how to calculate it:Note that weighted average = (total of weighted marks / sum of weights)

and  weighted mark = (weight * mark)

For example, if you received 60% on the final exam (weighted at 40 % of your final mark) and 80% on the major assignment(weighted at 20% of your final mark), your weighted average would be ((60*.4)+(80*.2)) / (0.4+0.2) = (24+16) / 0.6 = 40/0.6 = 66% WHICH IS ABOVE THE REQUIRED 45% TO PASS.

NOTE though, if you did not hand in the major project and received 50% on the final exam, your weighted mark would be 33% and you would NOT pass the course, even if your overall grade for your labs, assignments and final exam was greater than 50%
