If possible all skills pertaining to this subject will be evaluated in all the various tests and exercises proposed: short answer tests, lab reports, problem solving and projects ORDINARY EXAM For the Ordinary Opportunity, the Continuous Assessment option will be carried out according to the Table above. Note that should one chose Continuous Evaluation, it will be compulsory to carry out all the Lab Work proposed (Groups B) and the Supervised Projects (Groups C). A mid-term exam will be taken consisting of 4 Intermediate Tests: Short Questions, Problems, Groups B and Groups C. The overall value of this exam will be 40% of the overall mark. For the Final Exam the same 4-test structure will be followed. Again, the overall weight of this exam will be 40% of the overall mark. Further, the overall mark will be complemented with the assessment of the Lab Work and Supervised Project Reports, both with a weight of 10%. Those who chose Global Evaluation will be assessed through a Final Exam with a weight of 100% of the overall mark with 4 different parts similar in structure to the Intermediate Test and Final Test for the Continuous Evaluation case. For this option, it is not compulsory to carry out the Lab Work and Supervised Projects. The schedule of the midterm/intermediate exams will be approved in the Comisión Académica de Grado (CAG) and will be available at the beginning of each academic semester. The marks achieved for the Lab Work and Supervised Project Reports are only valid during the current academic year. Should the student chose the Global Evaluation option, this will be reported to the professor, otherwise it will be assumed by default that the student has opted for the Continuous Evaluation option. The student going for this Conunyuous Evaluation option must carry out all Lab Work and Supervised Project tasks proposed. Change to Global Evaluation can b chosen at any time during the semester. This should be duly notified to the professor. EXTRAORDINARY AND END-OF-PROGRAM EXAM Extraordinary Exam will involve a Final exam for all option: Continuous and Global Evaluation, as well as for End-of-Term.
