No lab this week!

Monday in class we'll spend a little time going over a few Hardy-Weinberg problems, and then we'll just open the floor to questions and review.

Tuesday I will be in my office from 9-4; got questions? Come on by.

Wednesday we'll have Exam III, covering Chapters 8, 9, 12, 23, and 25 (25.1-25.4). Subjects covered: chromosome mutations, extrachromosomal inheritance, chromosome structure, developmental genetics, and population genetics. Whew!

The optional final exam for this course will be on Friday, 11 May, at 11:00. I will have all the material for this course (the last lab report and Exam III) graded by Friday, 4 May, and the grades on WebCT so that you can decide whether you need to take the final. Basically, if you already have an A or if your exam scores have been extremely consistent, you probably shouldn't bother with the final; it's main intent is to help students who just had one bad exam day, and would like to replace a poor exam score with a more representative value.
