If you do not write a test because of illness, the second scheme will be used to
calculate your grade. You must provide April Seeley, 1st Year Undergraduate Office
Admin Assistant with a physician's letter verifying any illness if you do not wish a
zero. The tutorial grade is based on tutorial quizzes held each week in the tutorial. One
question taken from the homework assignment will be solved by the students under
exam conditions. The lowest score quiz of each term will be dropped by the tutors
when calculating the students tutorial grade.
