2/ You are strictly forbidden to switch groups, I will remove up to 10 points if you switch groups without my explicit and prior agreement for which you will have to provide me with a genuine and sincere justification.

3/ Should some students be absent 3 times (ie 2 + 1) without providing a valid and sincere justification, they are automatically excluded from the English class which means they will not have any grades at all in English even if they had taken part in some of the exams during the semester.

4/ In case you fail to be present for a class session (for justified or unjustified reason), you will have to do all the exercises from a unit/chapter of your choice from the grammar textbook (English Grammar in Use by Raymond Murphy). You will have to hand in these exercises the following class otherwise you will get a zero. This assignment must be handwritten NOT typed.

IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION / LATEST UPDATED INFORMATION

Dear students, 

I have just received this clarification from the History department about an important aspect of the English class in L3. 

Unlike in L2 and in M1, there is no "contrôle final" in L3 because the English course is optional in L3. Should the students be absent 3 times (ie 2 + 1) without providing a valid and sincere justification, they are automatically excluded from the English class which means they will not have any grades at all in English even if they had taken part in some of the exams during the semester.

All the previous indications and information that could have contradicted this latest updated clarification are not valid.

Best regards, 

MN
