Prerequisites
If you wish to enroll in this class, you
must satisfy the department's Mathematics
Placement Requirement (MPR).
This prerequisite is very useful in assisting you in determining the
appropriate first mathematics class to take at UC Davis.
You will be administratively dropped from this course if you have not
satisfied the MPR.
During lectures
The lecture starts and ends at exact times specified in the
schedule. Please do not be late. Do not begin to pack up before the
lecture ends.
Please switch off your cellphone
before the lecture starts.
Please bear in mind that talking, newspaper reading, etc. disrupt the
lectures.
No food or drink is allowed in class.
Homework
Late homework will not be accepted under any circumstances.
Exams
Please bring your student ID card. No books, calculators, etc. are
allowed in exams. Please be careful in your answers.
Little or no partial credit will
be given for incorrect answers in most cases. Show all work for full
credit. Usually a correct answer with no supporting work will
NOT receive full credit. There will
be no make-up exams. A missed exam counts as 0 points. If you
miss the midterm for a documented medical
reason, the midterm will not
count and its weight will be added to the final.
