Coverage
Exams cover material from the lectures, sections, exercises,
programming projects, previous exams during the current semester, and explicitly
designated reading assignments. We usually suggest readings from the texts
to help you follow the lecture and section material. However, bonus questions
may cover "anything."

Retrieving Graded Exams
[new section: needs to be cleaned up!]
-
prelims are returned in section. leftovers are resorted by
the staff and returned at Carpenter later in the week, usually Friday 5pm
for a Mon or Tues exam. If you do not find your exam AFTER they're distributed
at Carpenter, contact Laurie Buck.
-
final exam: not handed back. To receive score, give self-addressed
stamped postcard (or envelope) to the course staff. To review the graded
exam, go to 303 Upson about 3 weeks after the beginning of the next semester.

Conflicts
Check the schedule for all university exams at http://www.uregistrar.cornell.edu/our/Sched/.
What if you have a known *university-excused* conflict,
like a prelim scheduled at the same time? (Plane tickets for Spring Break
do not count.) You must first try rescheduling the event conflicting with
the CS100J exam:
-
many courses already offer alternate test times.
-
often the conflicting exam was not officially scheduled,
so the CS100J exam takes precedence.
If you have exhausted other means for rescheduling your conflict,
you must contact the course administrator, Laurie Buck:
-
two weeks before the exam
-
during her office hours
You might be eligible to take an early prelim offering
at 5:45-7:15 pm. Remember: We will allow only university-excused students
that contacted Laurie Buck according to our policy.
What happens if you miss one prelim because of illness,
unresolvable conflicts, or any other reason? You must take a comprehensive
makeup-exam during the last week of classes. This exam:
-
covers all content for all three prelims
-
replaces the score of the missed prelim
-
cannot replace more than one prelim, except in some cases
determined by the instructor's discretion
If you miss a prelim you must submit the reason(s) (in writing)
to the course instructor either before the exam or within a week after
the exam.
