<li style="margin-bottom:15px;">The student must maintain, in required courses, a cumulative grade point average on exams of '''78.0%''' in order to progress. The weighted average of all tests and examinations will be calculated first. If the average of test and exam grades is less than '''78.0%''', that will be the course grade.
