Expectations

You will get 5 homework assignments, each of 3 points. You can collect 15 points with them. Late submission: –0.2 points per day, no submission 0 points, but you may still pass the semester. There is a written test at the end of the semester, which scores 30 points. To pass the semester, you must collect at least 22.5 points of 45.

You must be present on the practical courses. One of the sessions may be skipped without any reasoning. For the second absence, strong reason is needed, and you must do all homework assignments to pass. Missing from the lesson for the third time results in a failed semester without any further consideration.
