GRADING SYSTEM

Assessment Tasks 60 %
Major Exams 40 %
 Periodic Grade 100 %

Prelim Grade = 60% (Prelim Assessment Tasks - ATs) + 40% (Prelim exam)
Midterm Grade = 30% (Prelim Grade) + 70% (60% Midterm Assessment Tasks - ATs) + 40% (Midterm exam)
Final Grade = 30% (Midterm Grade) + 70% (60% Final Assessment Tasks - ATs) + 40% (Final exam)

COURSE REQUIREMENTS

A. Attendance: Each class hour (lecture and laboratory) is equivalent to one (1) point in attendance. Incurring 20% of the total number of hours will be a ground for dropping the students from
the roll.
B. Quizzes: Short quizzes may be given without prior announcement. Long quizzes will be announced.
C. Assignments: Homework/assigned tasks are due in class on the day assigned. A student who fails to turn in the given task on time will get a grade of zero (0).
D. Exercises: Laboratory Exercises shall be submitted on the scheduled date. Late submission will be given a corresponding deduction.
E. Examination: Major examination will be given per term. Failure to take an examination would mean a grade of 50 beyond the 10 day – grace period.
