A minimum score of 35% with respect to the maximum possible score in the final exam is required to pass the course. In those cases in which the student decides not to carry out the continuous evaluation tasks, the final score will be solely based on the exam with questions of the subject. This also applies to the extraordinary and end-of-program exams. In case the student does not achieve the minimum score in the final written exam, his/her global score will be obtained using the formula: min(0.6*REP+0.4*TEST,4.9), where REP is the score achieved in the reports and TEST is the score achieved in the final exam. In case of collective reports, the respective contribution of each student must be clearly stated, and the final score will be personalized as a function of such contribution. An interview with the lecturer may be required in order to assess the individual contributions. Once the student turns in any of the deliverables, he/she will be considered to be following the continuous evaluation track, unless informed otherwise within one month from the beginning of the course. Any student that chooses the continuous evaluation track will get a final score, regardless of whether he/she takes the final exam. Continuous evaluation tasks cannot be redone after their corresponding deadlines, and are only valid for the current year. |
