**During the final exam period, there will be 2 exams. Exam 4 will cover the material since 4/19/04. There will also be an optional cumulative exam with questions covering material from the entire semester. Your grade will be an average of 4 grades out of a possible 5 grades. At the test, you will have the option to look at, work on, and complete the cumulative exam, but if it is turned in, that grade will count even if it is lower than your previously lowest grade. I want to give you an opportunity to improve your grade, but due to the short time frame for turning in final grades, I want to ensure that students who take the cumulative final have studied for it and are interested in improving their grades. Please ask if you have any questions about this.**

Stuart will have additional office hours until the final exam.
W 5/5 3-5pm; Th 5/6 11am-noon, 3-5pm; F 5/7 11am-1pm; M 5/10 11am-1pm, 3-5pm; T 5/11 3-5pm; W 5/12 10am-1pm

These genetics problems are from another class, so not all of the problems are relevant to Bio 212. In both set 1 and set 2 questions 1-10 cover information that was presented in Bio 212, and you can use them for practice.
