For those students that opt for continuous evaluation: 

- Final Exam: 60%

- Three short tests: 40% (10% the first one, 15% each of the other two)

(approximately in weeks 5, 9 and 14). Results will be announced within a reasonable time. If a student does not show up, the instructors have no obligation to reschedule the test for him/her. Each short test will cover the material from the beginning of the semester to the previous week. 

For those students that do not opt for continuous evaluation:

- Final Exam: 100%

Any student showing at any of the tests (short tests or final exam) will be assigned a grade. Any student showing at any of the short tests will be graded under the continuous evaluation format. The grade of any student that only shows at the final exam will be the grade of the final exam.

Students that choose the continuous evaluation format as specified above and do not pass the course will be assigned the grade "fail" regardless of any potential no-shows.

The short tests grades will be kept for the second call, if the case, but they will not be kept for future years. In the second call, students will be allowed to opt out of the continuous evaluation format.
