Examination Methods
The grade in "Algorithms" is given by 50% AB + 50% LPII, where AB is the grade in "Algorithms for Bioinformatics" and LPII is the grade in "Programming Laboratory II".
AB = 35% C1 + 40% C2 + 25% CC,
LPII = 50% P + 50% L,
where C1 is the midterm exam, C2 is the final exam, CC is the overall grade in the homeworks, P is a project in the lab and L is a lab test. The grade thus generated is registered at the first exam session in February.
Alternatively, AB = 100% E, LPII = 100% EL, where E is a written test, and EL is a lab test, each hard enough to match the difficulty of C1 + C2 + CC and P + L, respectively.
Registration: all grades are registered.
Withdrawal: Students may withdraw by informing the instructors.
Cheating: All tests and projects are individual work. Cheating is strictly forbidden and will determine lowering of grades for all students involved.
