Why the mark on your certificate will be 90% or more
The mark required to pass this course is 90%. The reason why it isn’t 100% is because we allow a margin of error on our side for questions which we may not have phrased well, and because English may not be your first language.
However, you’ll have to get 100% for the Summative Test at the end of each Test Series, so that your certificate can ultimately attest to your mastery of the content. To appreciate the importance of mastery, watch Salman Khan’s video Let’s teach for mastery — not test scores.
