The students will choose their grading method between two possibilities: continuous assessment or single examination.

The
continuous assessment comprises two midterm exams (20% each) and a final written exam (60%) if final exam grade is greater than or equal to 3.5; if not, the final
grade will be equal to the points awarded to this exam. In any case, the final
grade will not be less than the final exam grade. The first midterm exam will be foreseeably held on the sixth week, and the second one,  on the tenth week. In both exams, the questions will be based on ALL the material covered since the first lecture and students will receive their midterm grades in the next two weeks after the examination. The
final exam will be held on the date and time designated on the Centre Schedule and the questions will be based on the material covered on ALL the curse lectures.

The single examination option will require the student
to pass a written exam about the contents of the subject. The final
grade will be equal to the points awarded to this exam.

Every
student who commits to any of the midterms or the
final exam will be graded. Attending one of the midterm exams will be considered as choosing the continuous
assessment mode.

Any gradings are only valid during the academic year.

Those
who fail the subject in the first call at the end of the ordinary term
can use the second call, which consist in taking a single
written exam. The students will be graded according to the option
(continuos or single) of their preference, as marked in the exam cover.
