Mid-term exam +: extra opportunity to revise one of the results List of practical tasks required to fulfil the term requirements of the practical class: o Classroom test : Students are required to take two mid-term written exams. The first one (for 20 points) will take place on week 5, the second one (for 30 points) on week 10. The total score obtained at the two mid-term exams counts as part of the final (end-term) score. The criterion for being admitted to the endterm exam is achieving a minimal total score of 25 at the two mid-term exams.. Students are not allowed to miss (without a legitimate and officially proven reason) more than three seminars; otherwise they automatically fail the course and hence must retake it. o Presentation Intézmény neve Cím: 1148 Budapest, Nagy Lajos király útja 1-9. Tel.: 06-1-2733090 Fax: 06-1-2733099 E-mail: [email protected] o Essay to be submitted Detailed description of the methods applied to evaluate and grade student performance at a lecture: o Option to take a preliminary exam the last week of term-time o Written exam : Those who have obtained a total score of less than 25 points are allowed to retake one of the two mid-term exams on week 12. Students can sign up for the retake exam during the seminar on week 11, whereby they must choose in advance which of the two mid-term exams they wish to retake. In case a student’s total score after the exam retake is less than 25 points, he or she has failed the course and hence must retake it. Admittance to the end-term exam is conditional on 1) regular participation at seminars (maximum three missed occasions allowed); 2) a minimal total score of 25 obtained at mid-term exams; 3) completion of the assigned work. At the end-term exam students are examined for their knowledge of the accounting theory covered at lectures and their ability to solve related exercises. Obtaining a total score of 50% at the end-term exam and for the assigned work (jointly) is a minimal requirement for a pass grade. o Oral exam o Complex exam (written and oral) o Details: Other : Assigned work Details: Completion of the assigned work is required for admittance to the end-term exam. The assigned work will be published on Coospace and also told about at lectures. The deadline for submitting the completed assigned work is the first day of the exam period. Grading: The final score (= total score obtained for the mid-term exams, the assigned work and the end-term exam) is converted to a 5 scale grade on the following basis: 0 – 49 points fail (1) 50 – 62 points pass (2) 63 – 75 points satisfactory (3) 76 – 88 points good (4) 89 – 100 points excellent (5) Reading material necessary to complete the course-unit: List of mandatory readings: o Lecture notes and slides o Printed publications: o Author(s): Jerry J.
