EXAMS

Exams 1-4 are taken on-line on Blackboard.  The final exam MUST be taken in the OC Testing Center

• Exams 1-4, taken online on Blackboard, will be composed of 50 objective questions.  There will be a 60 minute time limit for those exams.  Students exceeding the one hour time limit will lose two points for each minute over the 60 minute limit. 
  

• Exam questions will be based on the unit objectives, which are based on the textbook readings and the lecture notes.  Thus, when preparing for each exam, students should focus their study efforts on the unit objectives.  Click on the "Unit Objectives" and "Lecture" buttons to access that information.
  

• The final exam, to be taken in the OC Testing Center (unless you are a VCT student) will be composed of 100 objective questions.  There will be NO time limit for the final exam.  A study guide will be provided for final exam preparation.
  

• In rare instances students encounter technical problems while taking an on-line exam.  The most common is being kicked out of the test.  I want to clarify the course policy.  If you are kicked out of an exam, notify me by email ASAP so I can remove the block and you can retake the exam BEFORE MIDNIGHT of the exam day.  In the rare instances where that technical problem occurs after I have last checked my email--usually by 10 pm--then the exam MUST be made up by the next day or a letter grade deduction will occur.  It is not fair to students who took the exam on time to have others retake it several days later, giving them more time to review the material.
