Grading and evaluating student work in class and at the final exam |
During semester two exams will be performed. Final examinations will be administered during formal examination periods. The following percentage equivalents apply to final grade: <55% Failure; 56%-66% (2); 67%-78% (3); 79%-90% (4);> 90% (5). Lecturers do not give grades. Students earn grades. |
