Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Minimum requirements: more than 50% of the exercise examples ticked and a maximum of 3x unexcused absences.

Overall grade: If the minimum requirements are met, the overall grade is calculated as the weighted average of homework (20%), midterm (30%), endterm (50%). In each of the three parts (homework, midterm, endterm) a maximum of 100% can be achieved.
