Final Score Calculation Logic

  • Assignment Score = Average of best 6 out of 8 assignments.
    • Final score = 25% Average assignment score +( 70% Exam score +5% of Matlab based assignment) NOTE: Regular assignment - 8 weeks;We have taken best 6 out of 8 assignments - 25% Matlab based assignment - all three - 5% Final exam - 70% A1-A8 -Quizzess A9-A11 - Matlab programming Assignment
