The way of giving the component module grades and the final grade

The type of classes The way of giving the final grade
Lecture
Class written test 45,0-60,0% =3,0 60,1-70,0% = 3,5 70,1-80,0% = 4,0 81,1-90,0% = 4,5 90,1-100% = 5,0
The final grade final mark (K): K= w C; C - mark for classes w - weigthing factor: w = 1,0 first term, w = 0,9 second term, w = 0,8 third term.
