Assessment System
The subject will be evaluated according to the following criteria: 1- Continuous evaluation (Up to 4 points) - Continuous evaluation of the first part of the subject (EC1): Up to 1,5 points - Continuous evaluation of the second part of the subject (EC2): Up to 1,5 points - Classroom performance (P): Up to 1 point 2- Ordinary Final Exam, with two parts (Up to 6 points): - Final exam of the first part of the subject (EF1): Up to 3 points - Final exam of the second part of the subject (EF2): Up to 3 points Total: Up to 10 points If the student passes any of the parts of the continuous evaluation, he (she) is released to attend the corresponding part of the final exam. - If the student passes the two continuous evaluations (EC1 >= 5 and EC2 >= 5), the final grade is calculated: FINAL GRADE = 0.1P + 0.45 EC1 + 0.45 EC2 - If the student passes one of the two continuous evaluations but fails the other, the final grade is calculated as follows: If EC1 >= 5 and EC2 <5 then FINAL GRADE = 0.1 P + 0.45 EC1 + 0.15 EC2 + 0.3 EF2 If EC1 <5 and EC2 >= 5 then FINAL GRADE = 0.1 P + 0.45 EC2 + 0.15 EC1 + 0.3 EF1 - If the student does not pass either of the two continuous evaluations (EC1 <5 and EC2 <5), the final grade is calculated as follows: FINAL GRADE = 0.1 P + 0.15 EC1 + 0.15 EC2 +0.3 EF1 + 0.3 EF2 To pass it is necessary to obtain a minimum of 3.5 points out of 10 in the total final exam 3- Extraordinary final call: The highest grade of the two cases will be computed - Case A: Extraordinary Final Exam, with two parts, computes the 100% of the grade for the extraordinary call - Case B: Extraordinary Final Exam, with two parts computes the 60% of the grade for the extraordinary call and the continuous evaluation computes the 40% of the grade.
