If you have a conflict between our first midterm (7:00-8:15PM,
<br>
Tue., Sept. 19) and another class or exam you need to sign up
<br>
on Carmen 11:59 PM <b>tonight</b>. I mentioned this in class
<br>
last week. It's mentioned in the syllabus and on Carmen. Go
<br>
to "Modules" and then the "Introduction" module. You'll see
<br>
"Exam Attendance Policy".
<br>
<br>
This is for the ALTERNATE exam and not the make-up.
<br>
The alternate exam is given at three different times on the
<br>
day of the exam. You should be taking it the day of the
<br>
regularly scheduled exam. If you have other classes scheduled
<br>
during our exam time and all the possible alternate times on
<br>
Tue. you could take it on Mon.
<br>
<br>
You will need to upload a copy of your class schedule showing
<br>
the conflicts.
<br>
<br>
There is a 15% penalty if your excuse is not considered a valid
<br>
excuse, as pointed out at the link on Carmen. You are not
<br>
suppose to take an alternate exam unless you have a class
<br>
conflict with our regularly scheduled exam time. If you do
<br>
this may not be considered a valid excuse.
<br>
<br>
Make-up exams are for those who don't sign up in time for an
<br>
alternate exam or miss the exam for a valid reason. This is also
<br>
explained on Carmen. If you miss the exam you must sign
<br>
up on Carmen for a make-up. There's a deadline for doing this
<br>
as well and a deadline for actually taking the make-up exam.
<br>
Make-up exams can be more difficult since you will have had
<br>
more time to study for it. This does not apply to the alternate
<br>
exam.
