Rules of the Game
1) The responsibility is entirely of the students to make sure that they have read this writeup
carefully and understood the points that will be strictly followed during the course.
2) 100% attendance is mandatory. If a student is absent too often, (s)he will be deregistered from
the course.
3) Total marks at the end of the course will be given out of 100 marks.
4) Anything below 35 marks (out of 100 marks) will strictly correspond to F grade. Rest of the
grades will be assigned relatively.
5) Homework submissions will account for 40 marks.
6) A lot of HW-problems will be given but all of them will not be meant for submission; some will
just serve as practice problems. Sometimes certain HW-problems will be meant for submission
which will be announced and such HW-problems must be submitted right on the date/time
specified. Fully complete and timely submission is mandatory; any non-compliance will
straightaway fetch the defaulter zero marks in the corresponding HW-problem.
7) Mid-semester exam will be of 30 marks.
8) End-semester exam will be of 30 marks.
9) The live lectures will be held over Zoom as per the following schedule:
Topic: PHY313A Live
Time: 1700–1830 hrs on Monday and Wednesday.
(All extra or makeup sessions, as and if required, will be conducted on Saturdays, 1430–1600hrs.)

10) Blatant copying, faking attendance, or any other unfair means in any form at any stage of the
course will be very very strictly dealt with and zero-tolerance policy will be adopted in such
cases.
