what is the amount of time we are supposed to have for every quiz? some quizs we get 15min and others 10min. are we supposed to have a set amount time for each quiz? or is it changing depending on how hard they are?  because the last quiz was rough with only having 10 mins to do all that. also , since we added about 3x as more quizs, do we get more chances to drop the lowest quiz?

The first Tuesday quiz should be short, about 5 minutes. The others should be about 10 minutes, with extensions if many people ask for it. (The intent is to make the quizzes non-time constrained but not to have them drag on forever when most people are finished.)

Let's say that you can drop the worst 4 quizzes -- and the first day quiz that was last year's final won't count among the four. It's not proportional to the original, but it's still a good deal.

Not really a good deal since our quiz amounts have quadrupled. I think the number of quizzes that would be dropped should be at least triple(it really should be quadrupled, but triple would be nice). Consider it? thanks Professor.
