Continuous Assessment - First Opportunity - Continuous assessment is carried out through the 5 elements of assessment(SAE1, SAE2, RP1, RP2, W) performed throughout the course and before the final exam. The subject is passed when the sum of S = SAE1 + SAE2 + RP1 + RP2 +W is greater than or equal to 5, provided that at least 30% of its individual values is reached in each of these assessment elements. - If S is less than 5 points, or in the case of failure to achieve the minimum in one or more of SAE1, SAE2, RP1, RP2, the student may take the examination in that or those assessment element(s) of interest to him/her in the final examination on the official date. - In case of failure to achieve the minimum in W, RP1 and RP2 are weighted at 25 % each. Continuous Assessment – Second Opportunity - In case of not having reached the minimum in one or more of the SAE1,SAE2, RP1, RP2 after the Continuous Assesment - First Opportunity, or in the case of not having reached 5 points in the sum of all the assessment elements, the student may take the assessment element(s) of his/her interest in the final exam on the official date of the Second Opportunity. - In case of not having reached the minimum in W, RP1 and RP2 are weighted at 25 % each. Global Assessment - First Opportunity - The final exam will consist of a written test with four parts, in parallel to SAE1, SAE2, RP1, RP2 described in the previous section. Each of these parts is worth, in this exam, 25 % of the final mark. - The subject is passed by obtaining a mark greater than or equal to 5 when the scores of the four parts are added together, provided that at least 30 % of their individual value is achieved in each part. If 5 points or more are obtained, but the minimum mark is not reached in any part, the final mark will be 4 points. Global Assessment - Second Opportunity - The final exam will consist of a written test with four parts, in parallel to SAE1, SAE2, RP1, RP2 described in the previous section. Each of these parts is worth, in this exam, 25 % of the final mark. - The subject is passed by obtaining a mark greater than or equal to 5 when the scores of the four parts are added together, provided that at least 30 % of their individual value is achieved in each part. If 5 points or more are obtained, but the minimum mark is not reached in any part, the final mark will be 4 points. - If, after the Global Assessment - First Chance, the minimum mark is not reached in one or some of the SAE1, SAE2, RP1, RP2, or if the 5 points are not reached in the sum of all the assessment elements, the student may sit the assessment element(s) of interest in the final examination on the official Second Chance date |
