COM160 Computer Problem Solving and Object Oriented Design
Spring Semester 2024/5

Assessment

The 2nd Semester Assessment consists of

• Three quizzes each worth 15% of the overall mark for the 2nd half of the module
  
• An assessed practical worth 25% of the overall mark for the 2nd half of the module
  
• An assignment worth 30% of the overall mark for the 2nd half of the module
  

There is no final examination. The two halves of the module are equally weighted so your overall mark with be the average of your 1st and 2nd semester marks. You don't have to pass each semester individually.

If you fail the resit will be a single invigilated examination on both halves of the module in a single paper at some time during the August resit period and will comprise 100% of the resit marks.
