Exams & Quizzes: The exams will be a combination of multiple choice and problems. I retain the completed exams and keep them for one semester. There are no re-test. The quizzes consist of 10 multiple choice questions. Quizzes are taken via Blackboard online with a 20 minute time limit. One point is deducted for each minute (or fraction thereof) over the 20 minute time limit. There are no retests.

Make-up exam policy – You must contact me within one week after the missed exam to schedule an exam in the testing center. If you have not taken the exam within one week from the scheduled exam date 15 points will be deducted from your exam grade for each class meeting date until the exam is taken. There is no curve available for the make-up exams. Only one make-up exam may be taken during the semester. The make-up exam may consist entirely of multiple-choice questions and cover any topics included in the chapters – not just the topics listed on the exam review sheet.If there is a conflict, you may take an exam early with no penalty. Please discuss this with me as soon as you are aware of a conflict.

Due Dates:

To receive credit all exams, quizzes, homework, projects and or other assignments are due on or beforethe dates as specified in the course outline/calendarlocated on the back of this page. No late exams, quizzes, homework, projects or other assignments will be accepted. There is no make-up work and no extra credit work.Assignments are usually worked in class. The instructor will indicate what assignments to submit for credit at the end of each class. If the student misses class assignments can be submitted via email on the due dates indicated by the end of class period.

If you have conflicts, which prohibit your attendance and/or preparation for class, please discuss these with either a counselor or me.

Withdrawal Policy: Apr 21st isthe last day to withdraw from this class and receive a grade of “W”. If you wish to withdraw, complete a withdrawal slip and turn it into the admission’s office. Do not assume I will withdraw you.

Attendance Policies: Austin Community College does not have an established attendance policy. The Business Studies Area has determined that absences in excess of 10 percent of the scheduled class periods are the basis for an instructor to withdraw a student from class. While I may withdraw a student for excessive absences, I have no obligation to do so.
