b) Advanced Opportunity: The conditions for evaluating the advanced opportunity (article 19 of the Normas de Avaliación, Revisión e Reclamacións das Calificacións dos Estudos de Grado e Mestrado) will be specific to this opportunity. This will be evaluated through an objective test that will represent 100% of the final grade.

3. Students with recognition of part-time dedication and academic exemption from attendance exemption: In the first and second opportunity, the evaluation criteria will be governed according to the performance of an objective test with a weight of 100% over the final grade. It will consist of a test in which theoretical and practical questions will be included in which the students will have to demonstrate that they have achieved the competences and the learning results of the subject.

Therefore, the student will be graded with "fail" (numerical grade 0) in the corresponding call for the academic year, whether the offense is committed on the first opportunity or on the second. To do this, her rating will be modified in the first opportunity report, if necessary.
