To pass the subject it is necessary to obtain an overall rating equal to 5 points or higher (out of 10) in one of the two calls (January and July). A score below 4 on the objective test or laboratory practices implies failing the subject.

The completion of the labs is mandatory to pass the subject. When, after doing the practises the mark obtained is lower than 4, the teacher will return the practice report, indicating the sources of error, which must be corrected by the student and delivered for a new assesstment by the teacher. The qualification of this second review will be definitive, it will replace the mark obtained in the practices at the time to do the final assessment and it can be done both at the first and the second opportunities.

The attendance to the supervised work is mandatory to pass the subject. Students who attend less than 50% of those tutorials will obtain a qualification lower than 50% in this section for both assessment opportunities in January and July, regardless of their qualification obtained in the short tests during tutorials or via Moodle. In the second opportunity of July, in order to obtain the global qualification, the qualification obtained during the course in this section will be maintained.

In the specific case of students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic assistance waiver, the mark of the tutored work will be replaced by that obtained in the personal tutorials, counting as 20% of the overall grade in the first and the second opportunities. In case of exceptional, and appropriately justified circumstances, the teacher may fully or partly exempt any student to perform the continuous evaluation process. In such case the sutudents will undergo a specifically designed test, in any of the opportunities scheduled.

"Not attended" assessment mark will be applied when the students attend less than 25% of the planned academic activities (supervised work and practices), and do not assist to the objective test.
