Course Requirements

The indicator of completing this course successfully is passing the final test. However, to achieve this, it is not necessary to go through all the tasks in this course. You should do the exercises until you feel you have mastered the material being practised; i.e. until you can use it independently without any guidance. Usually, it is necessary to go through at least 75% of exercises in each unit, but, of course, extra practice is always helpful
