The student’s computer must meet the following requirements: https://elearning.hse.ru/data/2020/05/07/1544135594/Технические%20требования%20к%20ПК%20студента.pdf) To participate in the CW-1, the student should conduct a system test. During the control work students are prohibited from any form of communication (by using social networks or with somebody else in the room). In case the student was unable to pass the CW-1 during the scheduled time due to interruption in internet connection, they CANNOT retake the CW-1.
  • non-blocking Control work 2

The student’s computer must meet the following requirements: https://elearning.hse.ru/data/2020/05/07/1544135594/Технические%20требования%20к%20ПК%20студента.pdf) To participate in the CW-2, the student should conduct a system test.

In case the student was unable to pass the CW-2 during the scheduled time due to interruption in internet connection, they CANNOT retake the CW-2.
  • non-blocking Essay
    In case the student fails to submit an essay within the period stipulated by the Program, the student receives “0” (fail) grade for the essay, and the final grade (GF) is re-calculated based on the following formula: GF = 0,24*GS + 0,14*GCW1 + 0,24*GCW2 + 0,29*GE + 0,09*GA where GS is the grade for the seminars, GCW1 and GCW2 are the grades for the control work 1 (CW-1) and control work 2 (CW-2) accordingly, GE is the grade for the essay, and GA is the grade for class attendance. At the same time, the grades for each element of the final grade are re-calculated and rounded to the nearest smallest whole number, regardless of the decimal digit. The final grade for the Banking systems discipline is rounded in the same way. For example, a grade of 7.9 is rounded to 7.
  • non-blocking Class attendance
