Requirements for Math 23A

To be eligible to enroll in Math 23B you must meet one of the following criteria:

bullet

Passing Score in Math 23A

bullet

Transfer credit (call Andrea Gilovich at 459-4691)

 Grading Policy

bullet

Homework (20%)

bullet

2 Midterms (22.5% each)

bullet

Final (35%)

From these scores I will produce an overall score for each student; these overall scores will be put on a curve for the class. Based on experience from previous courses, an overall score of around 60% is sufficient to pass (no guarantee of course.) It is possible to pass even if one does fail a particular exam. However, you will not pass if you fail all your exams even if you have perfect scores on your homework.
