COURSE REQUIREMENTS AND EVALUATION
CRITERIA
• Students will be graded according to the following
criteria:
Quizzes 40 %
Activities/ Seat works/ Attendance 30 %
Major Examinations
30 %
(Mid-term & Final)
TOTAL 100%
39
• Minimum passing score is 75%. The final grade is computed by
multiplying the tentative grade by 2 plus the midterm grade, divided
by 3. The highest grade is 1.00 and the lowest passing grade is 3.00.
Failure to comply with one of the above criteria, the student gets a
grade of 5.00 or incomplete.
• The University Grading System is specified in the matrix below.
