Lab Exams

          Exam scoring explained

Schedules for lab exams will appear as the first lab exam approaches:   Schedule for lab exam 1

If, for any lab exam during the semester, you cannot make it during your scheduled time, you MUST meet with Dr Pinkham to schedule a makeup.  This is to ensure that each lab exam has an appropriate number of students taking the exam.
 

Answers for lab exams will appear after the exam during the semester.
