The final grade of the course is the weighted average of all three components: exam, project, classes
The grade of each component must be at least 5.0 in order to pass the course

You can only take the final exam, if you completed the project and your class(es).
You are allowed one resit of your final exam, this resit needs to take place before the end of the next period, and will generally be an oral exam.

Feedback on assignments will only be given during the practical sessions (project and programming) -- please attend and ask questions! (Assignment grades should not be considered feedback.)
For each day of unauthorised delay after the deadline, an assignment will incur a penalty of 0.5 point subtracted from the final mark for this assignment.
Extension to a deadline (draft report or assignment) may be granted, but only if you request an extension from the coordinator before the deadline.
Late assignments will not be graded before the end of the course.
You can only resubmit one assignment (in case of an extended deadline or scored under a 5.0). This assignment needs to be handed in before the end of the next period.

do two conversion classes in Fundamentals of Bioinformatics (FoB), the other in Introduction to Systems Biology (ISB). The average of both conversion class grades will count towards each course.
each conversion class should score at least 5 in order to pass the course
if you score a 7 or higher in a conversion class, your deficiency is considered solved. If not, you must still solve these deficiencies during your first year, next to the other courses. This is done by completing an additional course assigned to you by your mentor.
