Personally I’d like to believe you are all herebecause you can’t wait to learn chemistry. Then, after a semester of good solid effort on everyone’s part, we’dshake hands and go our separate ways. Maybe a few years from now, you could take some cut-throat exam tosee if you knew enough chemistry to go to medical school, and you’d smile as you paused between questions toreminisce about good ol’ Dr. Laude: “Gee”, you’d think, “I wonder if he’s still alive...”But this isn’t the world we’ve made and consequently I have to have a grading procedure for this class. Here isthe general policy:The grades for the course will be determined by the following rules:1. Grading will be on a 1000 point scale. Letter grades will then be given on the basis of total points, using thefollowing scale:900 or more = A; 800-899 = B; 700-799 = C; 600-699 = D; less than 600 = F2. You may earn your points in the following ways:• You will take three 180 point in-class exams on new material worth a combined total of 540 points;• You will take a final exam worth 300
