Although some of you did very well on the last exam (several people made 100) the scores overall were very low so I have decided to give an opportunity to improve. I'll give an optional final on the date and time of the regularly scheduled final exam. There will be three parts to the final, one for each of the three exams. You can do any two of the three parts in order to improve your scores on two of the three exams. You can also do just one part and leave after 55 minutes. If you score better than your previous score then I will replace the old score with the new. If you do worse I'll average the two. The exam will be multiple choice but I will allow a certain portion of partial credit for clearly presented work showing a good understanding of the problem.

Harper does not interest in his student's success.He should put more energy in his teaching. Also, the average for this midterm is only 50, which was pretty low. I do not think that reflect the reality of how students know the material.For his lecture, he just read the ppt, which is helpless to us.

I think we can ask for a second chance of taking the third exam, or ask him to curve up our final grade.

He needs to reply email! It's hard to communicate with him.

Harper does show very little interest in his student's success. I could read off of a power point and do problems if I had the solutions in front of me too.

It's not too much to ask a professor to do his job professionally
Terrible professor
