Conditions for acceptance of the semester
The evaluation can be modified by grades of semi-micro preparations, success of unknown identification as well as the outlook of the records of exercise book.
Mid-term exams
The organic chemistry laboratory course will be graded (1-5), based on the two written tests on 6th and 11th week, first of all.
Making up for missed classes
Students have to contact their lab TA within 48 hours of missing lab to make the necessary arrangements.
Exam topics/questions
The written tests will contain the matter of practice.
