Grading Criteria:
0–59% = unsatisfactory (2.0)
60–66% = satisfactory (3.0)
67–73% = satisfactory+ (3.5)
74–80% = good (4.0)
81–87% = good+ (4.5)
88–96% = very good (5.0)
97–100% = excellent (5.0!)

To be eligible to take the exam during the first exam period, the student has to achieve an average of at least 50% on the midterm exams. Failure to meet this requirement results in a grade of 2 on the first term and the need to pass the course during the make-up exam period. In that case, the result of the make-up exam becomes the sole criterion for determining the grade on the second term.
On the exam during the first exam period, the student has to score at least 50%. A lower score results in a grade of 2 in the first term, regardless of the average from the midterm tests. The student is then required to retake the exam during the make-up session. When calculating the grade for the second session, the average of the midterm tests and the result of the exam taken during the make-up session are taken then into account, and the requirement to score at least 50% on the exam in order to receive a grade higher than a 2 no longer applies on the second term.
Students are required to attend all the classes. Students are allowed two unexcused absences per 30 contact hours. When the number of allowed absences is exceeded, the student should ask the teacher to be given additional tasks aimed at making up for the material missed from the classes by that student. If the number of absences is equal to or exceeds 50% of the total number of contact hours, it will result in the "non-classified" grade.
