If you desire, you may work on homework in small study groups, but make certain you do the bulk of the work individually. You won't have your study group partners to help you on exams!

Quizzes
There will be quizzes each week during the first 10 15 minutes of the Problem Section. The two lowest quizzes will be dropped. Any missed quizzes (up to a maximum of 2) will automatically be dropped with no chance of a makeup. The sum of your best quizzes will account for 75 points towards your course grade.
