Methodologies Competencies Description Qualification
Objective test B1 B2 C1 Oral or written examination with questions, practical exercises or comments text

The student must choose one of these two forms of evaluation:

1- Perform at least 25% of the share "READINGS" (40%) and submitted to the "objective test" (60%). In this case the marks obtained in the two methodologies, BOTH IN JANUARY AS OPPORTUNITY IN JULY would join. If the sum of the two methodologies do not reach the approved opportunity in January, the qualification obtained in the share of "READINGS" maintain and add to the score on the "objective evidence" of opportunity July That is, the student who chooses this evaluation system couldn´t take the "objective test" over 100%.

2- Take only the "objective test" (100%) in January and/or in July.


IMPORTANT NOTE: students who due to individual situations may not benefit from any of these evaluation systems, PLEASE CONTACT THE TEACHER WITHIN 10 DAYS OF THE START OF TEACHING of the subject to try to adapt the evaluation system.
