Extra Credit
A&P 2
Additional optional credit toward your grade beyond the expected assignments, tests, etc., may be obtained in several ways (see below).
Besides helping you learn useful concepts, extra credit serves as a sort of "grade insurance" by giving you a cushion of extra points—should you miss a test or exam or perform poorly on a test or two due to unforeseen circumstances.
Online explorations.
May 1 is the deadline for these Online Extra Credit activities.
