Your grade will come from the weekly quizzes (30%), the class exercises--exercises having to do with networking(20%), and your final exam (40%) and a fudge factor forclass participation via sections and the forum (10%).

Your quiz grade will be derived from your best 7 quizzes, but there will be no makeup quizzes.
