Retaking Quiz 1

If you were not satisfied with your first quiz grade on anatomical landmarks taken on     8-25-08, you can retake it on Friday the 29th. If you do better this will completely replace the first grade. Please do not retake it unless you studied and expect to do significantly better. It would be great if everyone scored at least 80% on this.

Also, please do not expect to be able to retake other quizzes. Lets all try to do well the first time.
