Testing Requirements at Freedom Bible College and Seminary
In the interest of academic excellence, the following guidelines are provided to help you get the most out of your coursework and the highest possible grades: 1. Read your testing procedures carefully. Follow them to the letter. If a test procedure calls for 300-word-minimum essays for each chapter and a 600-word-minimum essay summary, ensure that you meet these minimum requirements. Papers not meeting the minimum requirements will be returned, ungraded, for completion. 2. Spell and grammar check your work. If your computer or type- writer does not have these capabilities, have someone proofread your work. Express yourself clearly and concisely, using complete sentences. College level work is expected. 3. Ensure that each paper is headed as follows: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: John Doe Date: 15 March 2001 Course Number: BSC-403 Course Title: A Basic Christian Theology Chapter: 1 Chapter Title: What Can We Possibly Know About God? Home phone: (850) 555-5555 Freedom Bible College and Seminary P.O. Box 1060 Rogers, AR 72757-1060 --------------------------------------------------------------------- If you choose to submit your work electronically, your email header does not replace this requirement. 4. On tests derived from end of chapter questions, ensure you read each question and answer it completely. A common mistake is to answer only one part of a two-part question. PAGE NUMBER REFERENCES ARE REQUIRED ON EACH ANSWER. 5. On written tests supplied by the college, read each question carefully and examine all optional answers. Select the best answer according to the textbook. 6. We encourage our students to express their views when answering test questions or writing essays, but only after providing the text- book answer. You are graded on course content, not your opinion. 7. Limit direct quotes and paraphrasing from the textbook on essays. If you use quotes, you must identify those quotes through the use of footnotes. Provide a comprehensive discourse on each chapter covering theories/arguments under each heading and subheading. 8. FBCS is a Bible College and Seminary. We expect every essay to be garnished with supporting scriptural references. The Word of God must be at the center of all our courses and degree programs. (You wouldn't want it any other way.) 9. Your first course may be submitted one chapter at a time for you to get a "feel" for how we grade. After the first course, you should submit coursework in its entirety. 10. Always retain a copy of your coursework. FBCS cannot be held responsible for material lost in cyberspace or by the postal service.
