Assignment conditions

Lecture - standard test for all students, final test - 10 problem questions.
Classes - the condition for passing the exam is attendance at all classes, preparation and presentation of a semester report, and a positive grade in the final test - 7 problem questions. Points obtained: 0 – 50%/ insufficient; 51 – 60%/ satisfactory; 61-70%/sufficient plus; 71 – 80%/ good; 81 -90%/ good plus; 91 -100%/ very good. The basis for determining the total grade is the weighted average obtained by adding: 0.5 grade for the lecture and 0.5 grade for project exercises.
The weighted average is rounded to two decimal places. The total grade is determined on the basis of a weighted average according to the principle: below 3.24 - satisfactory, from 3.25 to 3.74 - satisfactory plus, from 3.75 to 4.24 - good, from 4.25 to 4.74 – good plus, from 4.75 – very good.
