Policy
1. There are two midterms(20% each) and one final(40%). Homework and quiz(20%) every week.
2. Homework will be assigned in the lecture, NOT in my section. I'm strict with "No late homework, and no makeup quiz" rule.
3. Roughly speaking, people whose work is good toward the end, i.e. on the last two examinations, and quizzes, homework, etc., in later part of the course, will be favored over those with declining performances.
