Grading history:

Grading is absolute (not relative) and done in relation to the course's learning goals. Therefore the distribution of grades fluctuates from year to year based of the students' pre-requisites and preparation during the course - and how well the course has been taught.

Grades are given according to the scale 5-U (with ECTS equivalents in parenthesis): 5 (A, B); 4 (B, C, D); 3 (D, E); U (Fx, F).

All-time history (since 2001):
5: 37% 4: 41% 3: 17% U: 5%

Last year (2024):
5: 36% 4: 56% 3: 4% U: 4%

The year before (2023):
5: 35% 4: 52% 3: 11% U: 2%
