Your final grade will be determined based on labs and a final exam:
- Labs: 70% of your final grade.
- Final Exam: 30% of your final grade.
Grade ranges:
- [90-100] - A

Each lab is worth 10 points. Completing main tasks correctly earns you 10 points. Completing bonus tasks correctly adds 2.5 points. You can earn a maximum of 12.5 points per lab by completing all main and bonus tasks.
Finishing all bonus tasks lets you skip the exam and grants you 5 extra points. Incomplete bonus tasks require you to take the exam, which could save you from failing it.
The labs account for 70% of your final grade. With 14 labs in total, each lab contributes 5% to your final grade. Completing all main tasks in a lab earns you the maximum 10 points, which corresponds to 5% of your final grade. If you successfully complete all bonus tasks, you'll earn an additional 2.5 points, totaling 12.5 points for that lab, or 6.25% of your final grade. Over the course of all 14 labs, the cumulative points from bonus tasks add up to 87.5% of your final grade. Additionally, a 5% bonus is granted for successfully finishing all bonus tasks, ensuring that if you successfully complete everything, your final grade will be 92.5%, which corresponds to an A grade.
Each week, two new labs will be available. You'll have one week to submit your solutions. Refer to Moodle for presentation slides and deadlines.
Submitting your lab results on time is crucial for your grading. Late submissions receive a maximum score of 6 points for the corresponding lab. Remember, completing all labs is necessary to successfully pass the course.
