The optional comprehensive final exam can be taken to replace a lower score obtained on one of the three prior unit exams.  The final exam score will be factored in only if it is higher than the lowest score obtained on the three unit exams.

Important:  The optional comprehensive final exam CANNOT be used to replace a missing score on a unit exam.  That is, the student must have taken all three unit exams in order to qualify to attempt the optional comp final.
