Ten Mistakes when Learning Probability

Grade Distribution

Homework (30%). I will drop ONE lowest scored homework. No late homework.
Midterm I and II (15% each). In-person. No make up. If you miss a midterm, I will move the percentage to Final exam.
Final Exam (40%). In-person. If you miss the final exam, you will earn an incomplete or fail, depending on the situation.
Historically speaking, the average GPA for ECE 302 is around 2.6.
I will curve the class. But roughly speaking, the passing grade has been around 50%.
