Marking Scheme

Students must have a passing average on the combined examinations and on the assignments to pass the course. Here is my algorithm for calculating marks.

  1. mark1 = 0.40 * assignments + 0.15 * midterm + 0.45 * final
  2. mark2 = 0.25 * midterm + 0.75 * final
  3. if ( mark2 < 50% ) then you get mark2; otherwise you get mark1.
