• Grading System: All tests/quizzes will be held in canvas. The tests/quizzes for MAA 5404 will differ from those for MAA 4402. For each test/quiz I will create the corresponding assignment with the attached pdf file containing the test problems. Please, complete the problems on paper (or otherwise), scan all pages into a single pdf file, and submit you solutions with this pdf file in attachment.
  The course grade will be determined by 2 midterms (15% each); 5 quizzes (10% each, the lowest score is dropped) based on homework assignments, and the cumulative final exam (30%). The resulting score determines the letter grade according to the following table

  Letter Grade	A	A-	B+	B	B-	C+	C	C−	D+	D
  Score	≥ 92	≥ 89	≥ 85	≥ 81	≥ 77	≥ 72	≥ 67	≥ 62	≥ 56	≥ 50
