• General
  • (June 27) Please do not take pretests or exams after the deadline date unless you have received special permission from me. I sometimes have to leave these exams turned on in order to accommodate students with special circumstances. However, if you take a pretest or exam after the deadline date without permission, I will eventually see it and change the score to 0. So it will just be a waste of your time and mine. Thanks for your cooperation.
