Assessment comments

A minimun score of 3 out of 10 will be required in the "Mixed objective/subjective test" to pass the subject. If this minimun score is not achieved, the students score will not be higher than 4 out of 10 even if his/her average is higher.

The "students with recognition of a part-time academic and exemption of assistance" will communicate at the beginning of the course your situation to the teachers of the subject, as established by the "Standard that regulates the dedication to the study of undergraduates in the UDC "(Art.3.be 4.5) and the"Standards for evaluation, review and claim of the qualifications of undergraduate and master's degree" (Art. 3 and 8b). Students in this situation will be assessed as the rest of the students, but they will not need to attend to the classes. They will have to submit all the cases and exercises solved in the classes.

The same evaluation criteria will be applied in the first and in the second opportunity.

The grade of "Not present"  will only be given to students who only participated in course activities worth under 20% of the final grade. 

The grade obtained by students who pass a portion of the course with a mixed exam (partial exam), will be valid only for the ongoing academic year. If a student in such situation fails to pass the complete course in either 1st opportunity or 2nd opportunity, his/her final grade will be "Fail", implying that he/she will have to re-take the whole course during incoming academic years.  

Students wishing to improve their final test exam grade will be able to do so only after applying to the professor and securing her authorization. 

Students taking the anticipated December opportunity will be subject to the same criteria as those applying to second opportunity.

It is forbidden to access the classroom with any device allowing for data transmission and/or warehousing when any of the evaluations is taking place.
