TERM EXAMINATIONS DEGREES. 149 TERM EXAMINATIONS. Written examinations are held at the close of each term or oftener, and whenever any study has been completed. Any student failing to answer correctly 60 per cent of the questions proposed, loses all credit for that study, and is precluded from proceeding with any other studies without special permission. If he answers from 60 to 74 per cent of the questions he is conditioned and may have another examination on application to and arrangement with the instructor. 75 per cent is required to pass.
