The final numerical grade will be a combination of the grades of the coursework and that of the final exam. The weight of the final exam grade will be between 1/2 and 2/3. The final exam grade weight will be more than 50% only when it is favorable to the students.
The final numerical grade will be calculated on a scale from 0 to 20.
It will then be converted to the official final letter grade according to a table published by the instructor at the beginning of the course.
