Following the guidelines of the degree, two evaluation systems will be offered to the students: continuous assessment or eventual assessment.

1. Continuous assessment

In order to opt for continuous assessment student should complete a registration form for this type of evaluation and deliver it to the corresponding teacher by September 22nd. After then it will not be possible to change the option of evaluation. Continuous assessment consists of the previous four one-hour sessions detailed and a final exam on topics 7 and 8. If a student cannot attend a particular test on the date for which it is scheduled, he or she will miss that test.

In this case, the final grading for a student is given by the formula:

N = (1/10) x C + (5/10) x E

C: grading, between 0 and 50, obtained as the sum of the marks of the four one-hour sessions.

E: grading, between 0 and 10, obtained in the final exam on the topics 7 and 8 of the subject.

In this mode, a student has successfully completed the course when N is greater than or equal to 5. Gradings obtained in the tests will be valid only for the academic year in which they are done.

2. Eventual assessment and extraordinary call

Those students who do not choose to be graded by continuous assessment, will be graded by means of a final exam (topics: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8) which will not necessarily be the same as the one for the students who choosed continuous assessment. This exam will be graded in a scale of 10 points and the passing grade cutoff will be 5.

3. Second call

On the day of this second final exam, the students who were graded by continuous evaluation may choose to be graded exclusively by this second exam or to be graded taking into account the points obtained in their continuous evaluation by the same formula used earlier, that is:

NR= (1/10) x C + (5/10) x D

C: Mark, between 0 and 50, obtained as the sum of the gradings of the one-hour sessions.

D: Mark, between 0 and 10, obtained in an exam on the topics 7 and 8 of the subject.

In this mode, a student has successfully completed the course when NR is greater than or equal to 5.

Those students who choose to be graded exclusively by the second final exam on topics: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 which will not necessarily be the same as the one for the students who made the other choice. This exam will be graded in a scale of 10 points and the passing gradecutoff will be 5.

4. Qualification of ''No Presentado''

A student will obtain a qualification of ''No Presentado'' if he did not choose continuous evaluation and did not attend the final exams.

5. Ethical behaviour

It is expected a correct and ethical behavior of all students in all written tests and exams, which are meant to truly reflect the knowledge and abilities attained by each student. Any unethical behavior detected in a particular test (such as copying or using prohibited material) will result in a grading of 0 in that test and the issue of the corresponding report for the School Director's Office.
