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

The type of classes The way of giving the final grade
Lecture The grading scale depends on the sum of points from two tests involving sub- topics of the lecture . 50-60 % dst (3.0 ) ; 61-70 % dst + (3.5 ) ; 71-80 % db (4.0 ) 81-90 % db + ( 4.5 ) ; 91-100 % bdb( 5.0).
Class Total score of two partial written tests and oral answers . Weight written tests is two times higher than oral answers . Grading scale : 50-60 % dst (3.0 ) ; 61-70 % dst + (3.5 ) ; 71-80 % db (4.0 ) 81-90 % db + ( 4.5 ) ; 91-100 bdb (5,0)
The final grade The final grade (K) K = 0,5wC + 0,5wW , where C - the credit rating exercise , W - evaluation of credit lecture in - a factor related to the term credit in the first term = 1.0 , w = 0.9 second term
