    This form is for your convenience and I suggest you print it out to keep track of your points. There are 485 points in this course, with the possibility of some extra credit points. You can know exactly how you are doing at any time. Remember, as noted earlier in this syllabus, if you have a 94% average of "actual" points (not counting the final exam, and without extra credit), you may see me to have the final exam waived. Your final grade would be an A. Remember that the denominator would be 385 points when figuring your average for the exam waiver.
