Note:

 

1.   Students in a Monday Tutorial do not have to write Quiz 2, because of the Thanksgiving holiday. For these students, only the best 10 Quizzes will count.

 

2.   As per university regulations, the MAT135Y Tutorials have priority over any tests (e.g. PHY131, CHM139, BIO150, etc.) held at the same time as the MAT135Y Tutorials. You are not allowed to skip your MAT135Y Tutorial and Quiz in order to write the regular sitting or the early sitting of another test. The instructor of your other course will have to let you write his test on another day or make some other adjustments, according to university regulations. 

 

3.   Students missing a Quiz because of illness (properly documented) should contact Anthony Lam in BA6125 (before the day of the Quiz, if possible) for special consideration. In any case, supporting documents must be submitted to A. Lam no later than one week after the day of the Quiz. Anyone expecting to miss a Quiz because of very special non-medical reasons must obtain special approval from A. Lam before the day of the Quiz .
