Grading Criteria

The following grading criteria will be used at exams and seminars:

To obtain the maximal score on an exam problem, the solution has to be well presented and easy to follow. Notation has to be explained, the logical structure of the solution should be clearly stated in words or symbols, and the reasoning should be motivated and well explained. Solutions that are very far from fulfilling these criteria will earn at most 50% points.

Minor miscalculations normally do not lower the score, unless they change the character of the problem or lead to unreasonable conclusions.
