9 Grading System

This course has only one part (moment in Swedish). There are not separate ‘theory’ and “programming” grades. Both the final examination and the obligatory exercises carry points, which will be added together to determine the final grade. Specifically, there is a total of 1000 points in the course grading system. These points are distributed as follows.

Obligatory exercises (5 @ 20 points each): 100 points
Obligatory software project: 100 points
Final examination: 800 points

Grade boundaries are as follows:



Number p of points
Grade




p 800 5 (med beröm godkänd – excellent)


650 p < 800 4 (icke utan beröm godkänd – very good)


500 p < 650 3 (godkänd – satisfactory)


p < 500 U (underkänd – unsatisfactory)


In addition, to receive a passing grade (3 or better), it is necessary to obtain at least 400 points (50%) on the final examination.
