CMPS 101, Winter 2002
Algorithms and Abstract Data Types

• Grading scale:
  • Quizzes and homeworks (1 per week) = 1/3 of grade
  • programming assignments (2 in C, 2 in Java) = 1/3 of grade
  • final exam = 1/3 of grade
  Also, you must pass each component (with a C or above) to pass the class as a whole.
  The grade cutoffs are:
  • 90 - 100 A
  • 80 - 90 B
  • 65 - 80 C
  • 50 - 65 D
  I will use extra credit work for tiebreaks between the boundaries of these grades, for good mention in the narrative evaluation, and for honors.
• Makeup work: If you have to miss a quiz for a good excuse (approved by me in advance), I may offer a make-up quiz, which will be designed to be slightly harder than the regular quiz. There will be no make-up for the final exam.
• Registering for a letter grade: The department of your major may require you to register for a letter grade. It is your responsibility to check the current policies and register for a letter grade if required.
