Assessment activity |
Weight (%) | Resit assessment |
R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R8 | Tests and exams | 60 (To pass the subject, the student must get at least 5 out of 10) | Yes |
R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R8, R9 | Assignments and reports | 10 | No |
R6, R7, R9 | Test and reports on the experimental work | 30 (To pass the subject, the student must get at least 5 out of 10) | Yes |
Tests and quizzes will be administered throughout the semester; their number and the dates will depend on the course progress. The weight of the final exam will not exceed 40% of the final grade.
To pass the subject, the student must get at least 5 out of 10 in both the "Tests and Exams" and "Tests and reports on the experimental work" parts. If the student does not pass the subject, the final grade will be the weighted average, unless the weighted average is greater than 5, in which case the final numerical grade will be 4.5.
