Complete assignment P2Conflict on the CMS, telling us what time you will come. If you have an issue with this, consider yourself in the group discussed in point 5.

4. If you have a conflict with your scheduled time (e.g. 5:30) but can make the other time (e.g. 7:30), complete assignment P2Conflict on the CMS, gving details of the conflict. Unless you hear from us, just go to the other time. If we have an issue with it, we will contact you to discuss it, but that will be the exception.

NOTE: It is standard practice at Cornell to take two prelims in one evening if you have a conflict. Sorry about that.

Conflicts

If you have a conflict with another exam or other university-sponsored event:

By University policy, courses are not obligated to provide makeup exams for students taking concurrent courses, and we will not do so in this course. The Courses of Study states: "Students are expected to be present throughout each semester at all meetings of courses for which they are registered."  The term "meetings" includes exams, even when scheduled in the evening.

Retrieving Exams

We distribute prelims in the CS Handback room, Gates 216, usually the day after the prelim. Bring your student ID card. Final exams may be reviewed the following semester but may not be taken from the room.
