Exams
There will be three hourly examinations throughout the semester. These exams will cover both the assigned readings and the application of the techniques presented in class in the form of a case study with questions. The exams will be multiple choice. Missed exams can only be made up in the case of documented and verifiable extreme emergency situations. Each exam will be graded on a 0-100% scale and together they will account for 75% of your final grade.
Please note that the slides and/or class discussions may not include everything that is covered by the textbooks. If a certain topic is not covered in the class it does not mean that you are not responsible for it. You will be responsible for everything in the relevant chapters in the textbooks and the readings, unless I specify otherwise.
