Score = [.12*Test#1 + .18*Exam#1 + (.15/2)*Homework + (.05/2)*Other] /[.12 + .18 + .15/2 + .05/2] + WeBWorK @0.1/(1/2) per point - #absences over 2.

Thus the midterm score represents .12 + .18 + .15/2 + .05/2 = .40 = 40% of the total course points.

• Numerical scores were converted to letter grades according to the exam scale given on the course information pages.
• Extra credit homework points were added to regular homework totals.
• The lowest homework score was discarded.
• Extra class participation boosted the "Other" (quizzes) score.
• WeBWorK points were added to the overall score @0.2 per point.
  (For the whole semester, they'll count @0.1 per point.)
• One point was deducted from the midterm total for each absence after the 2nd.
• An absence the day before or the day after a break counts double.
