Ordinary assessment:

Continuous assessment:

The final grade is calculated by the formula:

M = (2 x (E1 + E2 + E3) + 4 x EF) / 10

where E1, E2 and E3  are the points, in a scale 0 to 10, obtained in the three tests of the continuous evaluation and where EF represents the points, in a scale 0 to 10, obtained in the final exam. Before doing each test, the procedure and date of revising the grading of that test will be announced. After the test, the grades will be announced in a reasonable amout of time. If a student, for any circumstance, cannot attend a particular test on the date for which it is scheduled, he or she will miss that test and it will not be repeated.

The points obtained in the tests of continuous evaluation will be valid only for the academic year in which they are obtained.

It will be considered that a student has chosen to follow the continuous evaluation if he takes the second exam, that is, that of topics 3 and 4.

Global assessment:

The students who do not choose to be graded by continuous evaluation, will be graded by means of a final exam of all the topics of the subject. This exam will be graded in a scale of 10 points and the passing grade cutoff will be 5. 

Extraordinary exam:

The students who at the end of the semester do not obtain a passing grade will have the opprtunity of writing a second final exam on date, time and venue determined in the official exams calendar of the School. This exam will cover topics 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 and it will be graded in a scale of 10 points and the passing grade cutoff will be 5. 

Remark: During the exam correction period some students could be contacted by phone or telematically by the teacher to clarify aspects of their answers; in that case, such answers may have an impact on the exam grade.

"No presentado":

A student will obtain a grade of "No Presentado" in the ordinary exam if that student did not attend neither the continuous evaluation nor the final exam.

A student will obtain a grade of "No Presentado" in the second edition of the final grades if and only if that student obtained "No Presentado" in the first call and did not attend the second final exam.

End-of-program exam:

The students which attend the end-of-program exam will write an exam covering topics 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 which will be graded in a scale of 10 points and the passing grade cutoff will be 5. 

Ethical Behavior:

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 studen. 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.
