Assessment comments
Students MUST obtain a passing grade (50%) in every section of the evaluation (objective test, workshop and the two sections of the oral test). Students will be assessed as follows: 50% written exam, 30% oral exam and 20% continuous asessement activities (workshop).

Students will only be awarded ABSENT if
they have not taken part in any of the activities that form part of the
assessment system.

Students who are not obliged to meet the attendance requirement because they are exempt according to the regulations published by the Universidade da Coruña ((Art. 3.be 4.5) Standards for evaluation, review and claim of qualifications of two studies, university degrees and university courses (art.3 and 8b)) will have the same evaluations system as those students whose attendance is compulsory.

Second exam session (July): 

-Students will be assessed as follows: 50% written exam, 30% oral exam and 20% continuous asessement activities (workshop).

-In order
to pass this subject, students are required to obtain a passing grade (50%) in
ALL THREE assessment sections (written test, oral and continuous assessment.

-Students will therefore be required to retake those
sections of the subject in which they did not obtain a passing grade or the ones they did not undertake.

In the case of the early exam session, students must take a written exam (70%) and an oral test (30%).

aids or devices in the final exam is strictly forbidden. The use of any
unauthorised aids will automatically result in a failing grade (0). All
