Grading and evaluating student work in class and at the final exam |
During the semester, the final exam can be substituted via 2 midterm exams, related to lectures (theory) and seminars (solving problems), according to curriculum. During the final examination period, the final theory exam shall be taken after passing the final problem´s solving exam. Grades: 55-64% - sufficient; 65-79% - good, 80-89% - very good; 90-100% - excellent |
