Since you have a whole week to finish the online quiz, you need a
reason (say medical certificate) that covers at least 3 days of the
week in order to be considered a valid reason.
When you have valid reason to skip a test (other than final test),
the percentage will be re-distributed to other components of
assessment in proportion (other than final test)
If you met with problem with the MapleTA system (say the
question was not shown correctly on the screen), always take a
screen shot and let me know the problem.
You are reminded not to take online quizzes very close to the
deadline, since if system problem appear (it does happen often!)
you will have no time left to re-take the test.
