2 Midterm exams and final written examination. As a minimum requirement, students must pass at least one midterm exam and the final exam (attain half of the maximum number of points).
Grades are assigned according to the formula S = (M1+M2)/2 + F, where M1, M2, F denote points attained at the midterm and the final exams, respectively.
For a specific student i, to obtain a positive grade, Si ≥ Smax/2 must hold, where Si is his/her individual value of S, and Smax is the maximum attainable number of S.
Typically, the maximum number of points attainable at a single midterm exam is half the maximum number at the final exam.
