Notes on Grading

1. For students who took the first test and do better in the second test, their grade in the first test will be dropped in calculating their final grade.
   
   
2. All students must prepare to take the second test. There will be no make-up tests for the second test. If a student is in the infirmary on the date of that test, it can be administered at the infirmary.
