TOPICS COVERED:
Mostly topics from the 69.104 outline but with proofs. However, see the Detailed Class Oultine below for an extensive list of topics from the Calendar.

PREREQUISITES:
(i)  A pre-university calculus course with a grade of 65 percent or better; and
(ii) An OAC in Algebra and Geometry, or Mathematics 69.017*, or permission of the School. (See Prerequisites for First-year Calculus and Algebra Courses in the Calendar)
Note: Although the main prerequisite for Mathematics 69.102 is a grade of 65 percent or better in a pre-university calculus course, past experience indicates that students with less than 75 percent in their prerequisite calculus have only a small chance of success in Mathematics 69.102.

EVALUATION
Your grade will be calculated as:
(i) Term Mark 60%;
(ii) Christmas Examination 20% and Final Examination, 20%
OR
Christmas Final 50 % and final exam 50%, whichever of the two gives you the highest grade.

TERM MARK:
This will be derived from:
1) 8 term tests (best 6 chosen) for a total of 30% of your term mark.
2) Routine problems using WebCT will be assigned weekly for practice purposes: Use your Chat account name for login and your student number for your password.
3) Around 14 weekly quizzes over the two terms (best 10 chosen) will be given for the remaining 30%.
4) Weekly assignments will be given but need not be handed in. The solutions may be discussed with your Teaching Assistant (or the Instructor).
Note: The "best x of y" rules allow you to miss some of the term events for any reason (medical or otherwise).
Only under highly exceptional circumstances will a test be postponed to a later date.

SUPPLEMENTAL EXAMINATION
No Supplemental examinations

CALCULATORS
You may use a non-programmable calculator for the examinations and tests in this course:
The Sharp 531-L is available at the Bookstore for ca. $19.95 + Tax. Programming in C++ is strongly encouraged (but not on the examinations!).

WITHDRAWAL
The last date for withdrawal from the course is listed in the Calendat. If you decide to leave the course before the end of term, it is much better, in terms of your academic career, to formally withdraw from the course than to simply ignore it and get an F.
