Assessment Method

  • written exam with open questions

  • (optional) homework

The exam consists of two parts. The grade of the first midterm test counts for 30% and the grade of the final exam counts for 70% of the final grade.

By handing in homework (optional!) a bonus of 0.5 maximum can be earned that will be added to the total grade of the exam. This bonus is only given if the total grade of the exam is at least 5.5.

In the same academic year a retake exam will be organised. This will be in the form of a single exam about the entire course matter. The homework bonus grade and the partial grades are not valid for the retake.
