Class Work Average. The average (x out of 60) of the Class Work of the sections
taught by the same instructor should be in the interval [36, 45].

Exam Questions: The questions of the common exams are based on the examples,
homework problems, recitation problems and the exercises of the textbook.

Missing one of the Two Common Major Exams I or II: No makeup exam will be
given under any circumstance. When a student misses Exam I or Exam II for a
legitimate reason (such as medical emergencies), his grade for this exam will be
determined based on the existing formula which depends on his performance in the
non-missing exam and in the final exam.

Attendance: Attendance is a University Requirement (see p. 38 of the Undergraduate

Bulletin 2006-2009). A DN grade will be awarded to any student who accumulates 12

“I have tried to write a book that assists students in discovering calculus—both

for its practical power and its surprising beauty.”

MATH 101- term 101 : CALCULUS I – Dr. Faisal Fairag

The Book Says:

Reading a calculus textbook is different from reading

a newspaper or a novel, or even a physics book.
Don’t be discouraged if you have to read a passage
more than once in order to understand it. You should
have pencil and paper and calculator at hand to
.sketch a diagram or make a calculation
