Such reports have to be elaborated by every student individually, contain tables, figures and the calculations needed for obtaining of the results, as well as an analysis of those results, in relation to the experimental procedure and the theoretical foundations. They must be given to the teacher in charge of the corresponding laboratory group according to the dealine (7%)	20	A2 A3	B1 B2 B4	C16 C27 C28	D1

Other comments on the Evaluation
In the July call students will have to take a long test, which can represent up to 80% of the score, corresponding the rest to that of the Laboratory. The marks of the other sections (Problem solving and short test) may be kept if they lead to a higher average. The combined score of the exams has to be at least 4.0 on the 10-point scale for the student to pass the subject. Presenting any exercise, performing any practice or test makes it impossible for the qualification to be 'non qualified'.
