Comments setting up a direct relation between your project area and the study material will be privileged.

Your report is based on 300 points, being 10 points for each of the introductions 01-10, and  19 points for each of the in-depth studies 01-10. and 10 points for your conclusion. The resulting figure is divided by 30, to produce a final mark out of 10. A final mark of at least  7 out of 10 is required. If your result is less than 7 out of 10 or in case of a very weak result in any specific aspect, your tutor will inform you of the weaknesses so that you can review the subjects in question.

 

Once your tutor has approved the report with a mark of at least 7 out of 10, you can proceed to section 2 of Block 1 of the course. The two study points earned for your work on Section 1 of Block 1 will not be awarded until you pass the consolidated exam for Section A.  You can sit the Section A  exam after passing the  Block 2 exam.
