This table only represents a suggested pace for completing the work in the course. This table assumes that you work at a constant pace throughout the entire semester: from the day all materials are first available to the day of the final exam. It also assumes you want to spend 7 days reviewing for the final exam. It also assumes you take one week off for the break, but that weekends are no different from weekdays. Given these assumptions, the "Suggested Target Date" column tells you when you would need to be finished with each unit or test in order to maintain an even pace.
Of course, if your situation differs, you need to adjust the schedule appropriately. For example, if you plan to take a week-long vacation during the semester, you would need to adjust for that. If you can only work on certain days of the week, you might need to adjust for that. If you get sick during the semester and lose some time from your studies, you would need to re-adjust your remaining schedule.
SUGGESTIONS:
NOTE: The Dates in RED
are fixed, hard deadlines. You must have completed all work up to and
including that unit by that date. Students who have not completed all
work through Unit 12 by the deadline will be dropped and not permitted
to take the final exam.
