How grades are assigned?
All homeworks: 100 points (only few key problems from the homework will be graded, approximately 8 points for homework).Two midterm exams: 100 points each (100+100 points).
In class quizes: 50 points.
Final exam: 200 points.
Total: 550 points.
Lowest bondaries for grades (not higher than):
