This is an undergraduate course on basic probability theory. For more information, please refer to the syllabi and course information links below, as well as the official course description.
FINAL EXAM: The Final Exam will be posted here and delivered via Blackboard just like the weekly homework and the Midterm Exam. You will have a 36-hour submission window starting when it appears online to complete it and submit it. The (regular) duration of the exam is no more than 2 hours, and you will be self-proctoring and timing yourself, just like in the Midterm Exam. The exam will be made available on Tuesday 5/19 at 12.00pm EDT (noon) and will be due the next day, Wednesday 5/20 at 11.59pm EDT (midnight). This choice is the closest possible to the original scheduled exam times by the Office of the Registrar.
