Completion methods

Method 1

Evaluation criteria:
At least half of the total points (max 60) and accepted laboratory work is required for passing. The total points consist of exam (max 48 points) and exercises (max 12 points). Lack of exercise points can be compensated with exam points, in which case the maximum points in the exam are 60.
