Evaluation Methodology
Continuous assessment:
Written test worth 0-20 marks. A minimum mark of 10 exempts students from sitting the exam.
Exam-based assessment:
Exam is for students who failed continuous assessment or wish to improve their marks. Exam covers all the material taught and requires a minimum mark of 10 to pass the module.
Resits are for students who failed the exam and covers all the material taught.


NOTE:
A student who obtains a mark of 17/20 or higher in any piece of assessment will have to sit an extraordinary assessement.
