Late Homeworks: because I already drop one homework, I will only consider late homework in the case of a significant illness/exception that lasts 2+ weeks

Missed exams: you will require a doctor's note if you miss an exam due to illness. There are no make-up exams, so all your exam grade will then come from the other exam.
