Assessment methods and criteria

Home exercises and written exam (33.3 % for passing grade).
In the case of an approved course exam, the bonus point from the home exercises replaces the exam task with the lowest score.
The bonus points do not apply at the re-examination.

Assessment criteria, fail (0)

Less than 33.3 % of the total score.

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2)

Grade 1: 33.3 % - 47.2 % of the total score.
Grade 2: 47.3 % - 61.1 % of the total score.

Assessment criteria, good (3-4)

Grade 3: 61.2 % - 74.9 % of the total score.
Grade 4: 75.0 % - 88.8 % of the total score.
