Continuous assessment:
Theoretical part (50%): Two closed-book tests with a minimum of 7 out of 20 on the arithmetic mean of the two tests.
Practical Part (50%): Practical Work with a minimum of 10 out of 20.
Exam:
Theoretical (50%): Closed-book exam with a minimum of 7 out of 20.
Practical part (50%): mark of the practical work submitted as part of the continuous assessment or closed-book test with a minimum of 10 out 0f 20.
