Grading system
1-2 modules
G 1-2 modules = G cumulative 1-2 modules * 0.6 + G exam 2 module* 0.4
G cumulative 1-2 modules = G attendance, classwork * 0,4 + G homework * 0,3+ G tests * 0,3
3-4 modules
G 3-4 modules = G cumulative 3-4 modules * 0.6 + G mock exam * 0.4
G cumulative 3-4 modules = G attendance, classwork * 0,4 + G homework * 0,3 + G tests * 0,3
Final Grade
G final = 0.7 * the lowest mark + 0.3 * the highest mark
where the lowest and the highest marks are taken from G 1-2 modules and G 3-4 modules.
The arithmetic rounding rule is applied, i.e. 0.1-0.4 is rounded down and 0.5 and higher is rounded up.
Bonus points
Students can improve their G tests by 1 point. To do so they have to complete up to 10 bonus point tasks in modules 1-2 and up to 10 bonus point tasks in modules 3-4.
