Grades are awarded on a scale from A to F, where A is the best grade and F is a fail. There are three projects which are graded and each project counts 1/3 of the final grade. The total score is thus the average from all three projects.
The final number of points is based on the average of all projects and the grade follows the following table:
In addition you can get an extra score for weekly assignments (10 in total and due each Friday). Each weekly assignment counts 1 point. As an example, this means that if your average after three projects is 88 points and you have handed in and gotten approved four weekly exercises, the total score is 88+4=92, which translates into an A.
