MGTA04 - Intro to Management Fall 2007
MANAGEMENT

 

COURSE EVALUATION 

The course evaluation will consist of a midterm test and a final exam.

Mid-Term Test: The mid-term will take place during mid- to late-February. It will consist of approx. 40-50 multiple-choice questions and a small number (probably 2-4) short answer questions. The mid-term will be worth 40% of your overall evaluation.

Final Examination: The final exam will be scheduled during the final exam period (Mid-April to early May. It will consist of approx. 50-60 multiple-choice questions and several (probably 6-10) short answer questions worth an additional 40 marks. The final exam will account for 60% of your overall evaluation.

Dates: The precise dates of the midterm and final exams will not be known until the final schedules are set by the Registrar’s Office, around the middle of the semester.

Coverage: The final exam will be cumulative in nature, covering material from the entire course.

Multiple choice questions require you to have detailed knowledge of the course material, and to be certain enough of your facts to avoid being mislead by choices that look correct but are not. This cannot be achieved through a one-time reading of the course material, or by last minute cramming before the exams. You will find it necessary to keep up-to-date with your readings throughout the term and attend classes regularly.

EXAM CONFLICTS and FAILURE TO WRITE

Exam conflicts for the midterm should be addressed to the course instructors as soon as possible.

If a student misses the midterm exam, provided proper medical documentation is received within 7 days of the midterm, the amount of the missed midterm (40%) will be added to the final exam, thus making the final exam worth 100%.

Final exam conflicts should be reported to the Assistant Registrar's Office, no later than 3 weeks before the beginning of the exam period. If a student misses the final exam, they must follow the petition process as outlined in the UTSC Calendar.
