Other comments on the Evaluation
CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT: - The students will have to pass, with at least 5 points out of 10, each one of the five partial examinations (four of Theory and one of Practices). In case of not reaching the minimum note in any of the partial proofs, the qualification in Records (First Call) will be always the average note of the failed partial examinations. Students will be able to retake in Second Call only the failed partial examinations, keeping the grades approved during the semester GLOBAL ASSESSMENT: Exceptionally, students who decide to do so and communicate it within the period established by the center, may apply for Global Assessment and take the full subject exam only in a global exam at the end of the semester (and/or in Second Call). IN BOTH MODALITIES OF ASSESSMENT: The students who, having failed the global examination or any of the partial tests of the semester, do not appear for their retaken in Second Call will appear in the Records as "Not Presented". To pass the subject, students must attend Laboratory Practices. A single lack of attendance is allowed, if documentally justified. Date of final exams: https://mar.uvigo.es/alumnado/examenes/ Students are strongly requested to fulfil a honest and responsible behaviour. It is considered completely unacceptable any alteration or fraud (i.e., copy or plagiarism) contributing to modify the level of knowledge and abilities acquired in exams, evaluations, reports or any kind of teacher’s proposed work. Fraudulent behaviour may cause failing the course for a whole academic year. An internal dossier of these activities will be built and, when reoffending, the university rectorate will be asked to open a disciplinary record
