Passing percentage: 60% Course outline Grading System: Phys 13 Final Grades = 1/3 (midterm grade) + 2/3 (post midterm grade) Term Grades = 1/3 (laboratory grade) + 2/3 (lecture grade) Lecture grade = (obtain points from… quizzes + attendance + Exams) ÷ Total point x 100% NOTE! “PASSED BOTH POLICY” This means that both lecture and laboratory should have a passing grades, otherwise will be mark “FAILED”. Passing percentage: 60%
