- According to the rules contained in “Probas de Avaliación e Actas de Cualificación de Grao e Mestrado”, the so-called “second opportunity of July” is understood as a second opportunity to retake the final written exam. The mark of  this second exam will be considered together with the others obtained during the course, corresponding to the other activities. The percentages of the different contributions will be the same as those of the former "first opportunity".

Succesive academic years:

- The teaching-learning process, including assessment, refers to an academic course and, therefore, will restart as new with every new academic year, including all activities and assessment procedures scheduled for that course.

Mixed objective/subjective test dates:

 Final written exam for the two opportunities will be held on the
official dates approved by the Faculty Board.
