Assessment comments | |||
To pass the subject, students must score at least 50% pass in Laboratory Practice as well as 50% in Mixed objective/subjective test. The Mixed objective/subjective test (final exam) will include both theory and exercises. If the cumulative final score is 5.0 or higher, but the student failed either the Mixed objetive/subjective test and/or the laboratory exam (50% pass mandatory in both of them), the grade report will read the grade of the failed exam. Having said this, students with scores [4.5-4.9] in Laboratory Practice may pass the subject if their score in the Mixed objective/subjective test is 5.0 or higher and the final cumulative result is 5.0 or higher. Students with scores [4.5-4.9] in the Mixed objective/subjective test may pass the subject if their score in Laboratory Practice is 5.0 or higher and he final cumulative result is 5.0 or higher. In this case, even if the final cumulative result is higher than 5.0 the final grading will be 5.0. Pass marks (5.0 or higher) obtained in Laboratory Practice will be kept for the July examination session and the two opportunities of the next academic year if scored at least 50% pass. For example, someone who pass his/her labs in 1st opportunity of year 2020/21 may keep that mark until the July examination session of year 2021/22. Also, if he/she passed the lab exam in the 2nd opportunity of year 2020/21, that result will also be kept until the July examination session of year 2021/22. Pass marks (5.0 or higher) obtained in the Mixed objective/subjective test (1st opportunity) will be kept for the July examination session (2nd opportunity) but never for the next academic year. Official withdraw from the course is only possible if the student attends neither Mixed objective/subjective test (final exam) nor the Laboratory Practice exam. Part-time students or students who participate in equality and diversity If the university discovers a case of fraud or plagiarism in any exam or assignment, the student will fail the whole subject or just the assignment (respectively) as stated in the academic rules and regulations of our university.
