SYSTEM OF COMPUTING GRADES:
Midterm Grade:
Long Exams --------------------------------------------------------------- 30%
Midterm Exam ------------------------------------------------------------ 40%
Short Quizzes/Online quizzes, Homework, Seatwork -–-------- 10%
Project Output (proposal, Gantt Chart and budgetary reqts) ---20%
100%
Tentative Final Grade:
Long/Final Exams -------------------------------------------------------- 35%
Project Output (presentation, portfolio, hardbound, reports)-- 40%
Short Quizzes/Online quizzes, Homework, Seatwork ---------– 10%
Course Portfolio ------------------------------------------------------- --- 15%

TRANSMUTATION FORMULA FOR QUIZZES AND EXAMS
TG = 50 + (X/Y)*50
TG = Transmuted Grade
X = Score obtained
Y = No. of items of the Quiz or Exam

Final Grade= 70% Tentative Final Grade + 30% Midterm Grade

Passing rate= 75%
If final grade is between 55% and 74%, student takes a Remedial Exam, which is a pass or fail exam.
If final grade is below 55%, the student gets a failing mark automatically.
