4.26 – 5.0 10
3.76 – 4.25 8
3.26 – 3.75 6
2.76 – 3.25 4
2.00 – 2.75 3
c) class attendance (up to 4 grade points)
By attending all forms of classes (lectures, seminars, practicals), students can obtain grade points in the following way:
100% =4 grade points
90%-99% =3 grade points
80%-89% =2 grade points
70%-79%= 1 grade points
