General instructions

There will be two midterm exams and one final exam. Exam information will be posted here as it becomes available. Exam dates are shown below.

DRES Accomodations

Students needing accomodations to take the midterm exams and the final are requested to make use of the Testing Accomodations Center run by DRES. Students taking the exam at TAC are required to take the exam on the same day as the rest of the class.

Students should plan ahead of time and put in their TAC reservations as early as possible. We recommend putting in requests two weeks before the midterms and as early as possible for the final exam.

Conflict exam information

Only students who have submitted a conflict request will be allowed to take the conflict midterm. Conflict midterms will take place in accordance with your enrolled ECE 220 section.

Conflict midterm time: If you cannot take the 7.00 pm midterm on the day of the test then you MUST take the conflict midterm provided during your regular lecture time & location.

Example: B. Bugsalot is enrolled in Section BL3 of ECE 220. Unfortunately, their MATH 227 exam is also scheduled for 7.00 pm on the same day as their ECE 220 midterm. Therefore, they should take the conflict midterm provided by the BL3 section in ECEB 1013 at 3.00 pm because BL3 section meets for regular lecture in ECEB 1013 at 3.00 pm.

The above is an example. Students should adjust it according to their enrolled section.

Exam scores & regrades

Regrade requests are due by the Wednesday following the release of the exam scores. Exam scores will typically be available on Gradescope within one week of the exam (i.e. by the Thursday following the exam). Regrade requests made after the deadline has passed will not be entertained.

Example: The first midterm is on 02/26, scores will be available 03/05 and therefore the deadline for regrade requests is 03/11 (by midnight CT).

25 26 27 28 29 30 31                              29 30 31

You must clearly state the reason for a regrade; "I think I deserve more points" is not a valid reason and requests of this type will not be processed.

⛔️ Caution!
Note: It's your responsibility to check the rubric for any question submitted for regrade. Your regrade request may result in a lower score, in which case it will be your final score. The course staff reserve the right to regrade your entire exam.
