Evaluation Methodology
Continuous assessment consists of three written tests. The first one is graded from 0 to 6 and the following two from 0 to 7. A minimum mark of 2 in each test and a minimum overall mark of 10 exempts students from taking the exam.
By exam:
If students has been admitted to exam, or intends to improve the grade, they may take the normal exam a written test (graded from 0 to 20) on all the contents taught. If, in this test, students obtain a grade higher than or equal to 10, they pass.
If students fail the normal exam, they may apply to an extra exam a test with the same rules as the normal exam.
NOTE:
For any of the assessment periods, if students obtain a final grade equal to or higher than 17 points, they must undergo an extraordinary assessment.
