Written exam marks translated into points for the course

Top mark possible: 5 (question 1) + 5 (question 2) + 5 (question 3) + 10 (question 4) + 8 (bonus) = 33 (”trenta e lode”)

To calculate the number of course “points” (maximum 5 for this exam), divide the “mark” by 6.

Thus:
Marks from 33 to 28 = 5 course points
Marks from 27 to 21 = 4     “            “
Marks from 20 to 16 = 3     “            “
Marks from 15 to 09 = 2     “            “
Marks from 08 to 00 = 1     “            “

(On the statisticians' “rounding-off” method used, see here.)

You can see your written exam papers and my correction of your self-marking in my office (third floor, room 3.01) during office hours – click here.
