Test 4 (SU 6 & 7)

Breakdown of marks:

•Four Efundi (multiple choice) class tests will be written. The best 3 out of the 4 tests will be used to calculate your module mark (90%).
•Smaller tests / quizzes will be written continuously on Efundi. The best 3 out of 4 will be used to calculate your module mark (10%).
•The module mark will then be calculated by combining the 90% (from tests) and the 10% (from quizzes).

Rules concerning the re-marking of class tests and other assessments in Statistics modules:

All inquiries or requests to change marks for tests and assignments must be completed within 5 days after the marked tests/assignments have been made available to the student. No changes will be made after 5 days have passed.
