Instruction to students
Go through following points and act accordingly so that the course will
really enhance your knowledge.
1. Try to see that you don’t miss any of the lecture classes.
2. Maintain a thick separate exercise book for noting down the board
works.
3. Have color pens and scientific calculator while attending classes.
4. Four class tests will be conducted at the end of aproximately every 12
lectures completed. The exact dates and timing of the tests will be
announced in due course.
5. Also Four assignments at regular intervals will have to be solved by you
and formally to be submitted within the stipulated time. During lecture
hours we shall inform you when the assignments are posted.
