Monitoring and grading policy

Year of Study: I Year
At the first lesson of the course students are introduced to the rating system of performance, which is based on the university regulations on the academic performance and grading system.
The continuous assessment of student performance during the course suggests that the 100-point score comprise getting maximal 2.5 points obtainable for classroom work at 32 lessons (16 lessons in each semester), and doing the 10-point Module Test in semester I, and 10-point Final Revision Test in semester II.
Classroom work includes fulfilling the homework assignments, studying the coursebook materials, and discussion in groups.
At the final lessons of the course students will add their rewarding points, if there are any, to the performance score, and in case it is in total higher than 60 points, they may like to get their Pass instead of taking the Fail/ Pass Test.
The final performance score is adopted by university grading system as follows:
Score Grade
100-95 Excellent
94-85 Very good
84-75 Good
74-65 Satisfactory
64-60 Sufficient
below 60 Fail
Course requirements are not met Not graded

Year of Study: II Year
The student’s rating consists of points obtained in practical classes, the results of a modular test in the III semester and the final test in the IV semester.
The maximum score during the year is equal to:
Practical classes = 2.5 points x 32 = 80 points
Module test = 10 points
Final test = 10 points
Total = (2.5 points x 32 + 10 points x 1 + 10 points x 1) = 100 points
According to the university regulations on the monitoring of students’ academic progress there are two assessment weeks. In the penultimate lesson, the final calculation of the rating is performed and students are given incentive points for creative work.
The final performance score is adopted by university grading system as follows:
Score Grade
100-95 Excellent
94-85 Very good
84-75 Good
74-65 Satisfactory
64-60 Sufficient
below 60 Fail
Course requirements are not met Not graded

Year of Study: III Year
At the first class the students are acquainted with the grading policy. The student’s rating in the course consists of points that he/she receives for participation in 24 practical classes (R1), a research paper (R2) and a final test (R3).
Rs=R1+R2+R3=100 points
Answers to practical classes include: working with the textbook and disclosing conversational topics.
In the first lesson of the 5th semester, entrance testing is conducted, grades for which are not included in the ranking of students. As a result, the maximum average weight score is equal to:
16 classes x 2,5 points = 40 points (5 semester)
8 points x 5 points = 40 points (6 semester)
Research paper = 10 points
Final test = 10 points
The students who finally score the required number of points (≥60) can get their final grade according to the rating score.
The final performance score or the results of the Fail/ Pass Test are adopted by university grading system as follows:
