It is mandatory for students to complete all examination within the given time frame. (If you fail to meet this requirement and fail to officially withdraw from the class will be given a grade of "F".)
While I may elect to withdraw a student due to absences, it is your responsibility to officially withdraw if you cease to attend review session. Any student who does not successfully complete the course objectives and who has not officially withdrawn from class will be given a grade of "F".

F = 0 - 59.99%
The examinations are administered in class on the scheduled day.
