Subramanian,
Please circulate the following message on the group.

I am not satisfied with the quality of reading for group assignments,
therefore these will not be included in the endsem. Students do not
have to read the assignment reading for the exam.

Please lets get done with it at 9. I'm assuming many of us have other work to get done with after the exam.

And we aren't going to learn much in 3 hours. So lets just stick to having the exam at 9am.

Hi,

Please note:
Only those readings. No questions from quiz I portion or assignments.
Familiarity with current topics based on reading of China Daily during the semester is expected.
