  • Math 3C (Probability for Life science Students) under Spring 05 and Winter 06. Note that this is a lower division course, so you should expect a somewhat higher level for 170A, but the above may help to at least check that you can do the 'simple' problems.

  • Math 170A under Spring 02 and solutions . Note here that I gave one midterm only, and that one later in the quarter, hence the students had already more material. It should be a good check for your self which of the problem(s) you cannot solve yet with the material covered thus far.

• Any regrading requests (see syllabus for details) can be made until Monday, 8th of May and no later.

• The rules for regrades are as follows:
  1. Recall: Before exams are returned, I will take a random selection of exams to be copied. So when you come back for a regrade, make sure you know what you added later on to the exam and what was originally there.

  2. Any regrading request has to be submitted in writing to me, Andrea Brose. No more than two sentences are accepted.

  3. Accepted regrading request include cases, where you believe that the points got added up incorrectly, or where you believe we missed grading a part of your work.

  4. Regrading requests, such as "I deserve more partial credit" are not accepted, as all exams have been graded consistently.

  5. Be aware that a regrade means that your exam will be regraded from scratch, and it is possible that you will receive a lower score than originally given, if I decide that the original grade was too high.
