weighing Explanation: The "coefficient" bit is definitely about the weighing of the different papers/exams, I'm not too sure about the other part though. Could it refer to the places where you can sit the exam? |

peer agreement (net): +1exam/test weighting factors / written and oral exam/test centers Explanation: For each file, a brochure provides information on the competitive entrance exam and sets forth the terms and conditions of registration, of the competitive entrance exam (kind of exam, exam schedule and exam/test weighting factors of the tests), the written and oral exam/test centers. http://www.ets.org/ Computer-Based Testing -- Your Questions Answered -- Important Information for all CBT Test-Takers! BEFORE you go to the test center, carefully review these Essential Test-Taker GUIDELINES on pacing yourself during the test and other test preparation/test taking strategies. http://www.soka.edu/catalog.html Each course taught will have a designated number of credit hours. The GPA is a weighted average of the numerical equivalents of grades received, with credit hours as the weighting factor. The computational scheme is as follows: Quality points are computed by multiplying each numerical grade by the corresponding number of credit hours, and summing over all courses. The grade point average is computed by dividing the quality points by the total number of credit hours. Pass/fail classes are not included (either toward Q.P. or total c.h.) when passed, but are included when failed (with a numerical grade of 0). |

regularizing factor / centres for written and oral tests Explanation: In the French system of examinations all subjects are not equal. If you sit for the entrance exam to a scientific Grande Ecole, the marks you get in maths (out of twenty) will be multiplied by - let us say - 14. The marks you get in English will be multiplied by 6. As these exams are national, there are centers in most big cities for written tests. Oral tests are usually taken in Paris. I used to teach students who took these exams |
