第七条　课程考核
1．学校安排的理论课程和实践环节，均应进行考核。根据各门课程的特点采用笔试、口试、课程论文等不同的形式。笔试形式的考试时间一般为两个小时；

第八条　成绩与绩点
学生的学习质量以经学分加权的平均绩点进行综合评价。
1．成绩与课程绩点的关系。
百分制 五级（十一等）制 绩点
90～100 A 4.0
85～89.9 A— 3.7
82～84.9 B＋ 3.3
78～81.9 B 3.0
75～77.9 B— 2.7
72～74.9 C＋ 2.3

个别经教务处批准备案的课程可采用P（通过）和L（不通过）的两级制进行成绩记载，但不计课程绩点。
2. 学分绩点、平均绩点的计算。
将某一课程的学分乘以该课程的绩点，即为该课程的学分绩点。以学生全部课程学分绩点之和，除以该生同期修读课程的总学分数，即得出该生平均绩点。
采用两级制考核方式的课程不纳入平均绩点计算。
例如：某学生修选五门课程,学分均为4
其成绩分别为: A　 　B　　C　　D_　 F
其绩点分别为: 4　 　3　　2　　1　　0
其学分绩点分别为:　16　　12　　8 4 0
则该生在该学期以学分加权的平均绩点为：10
学生的平均绩点每学期计算一次。
第九条　考核成绩不低于60分（D_）或者两级制考核方式中获得通过，即获得该课程的学分。
第十条　成绩复核
学生对成绩结果存在异议的，可在学期成绩公布后的一周内，向本人所在学院提出复核申请，填写“学生成绩复核申请表”，逾期的申请不予受理。学生所在学院负责汇总“学生成绩复核申请表”，并送交各开课学院。开课学院应在收到“学生成绩复核申请表”的两周内完成复核，填写“成绩复核情况反馈表”， 学院（系）的教学院长签字确认，并将复核结果反馈给学生所在学院。复核后成绩需更正的，按成绩更正流程进行办理。

Only when the application is approved will those be possible.
8 All the undergraduate students should select their courses by logging in http://202.121.199.196:100/login.asp or entering “Shanghai University---administrative organization---the Office of Educational Administration” before the deadline.
