The competences of the subject are evaluated through two partial exams, each with a weight of 50% to the final grade of the subject. The subject of each partial exam can be eliminatory if the students reach a minimum grade of 5.0. All students will have two opportunities to pass the two parts of the subject: partial exam (during the semester) and retrieval exam (at the end of the semester).

PARTIAL EXAMS:

The subject will program 2 partial exams with a weight of 47,5% each.

• First partial: This partial exam will focus on the contents of the head, respiratory, urogenital, digestive systems, hearing and vision. Lectures of section 1, 2, 3 + PLAB 1, 2, 3 + SEM 1 + SEM 2.
• Second partial: It will focus on the contents of the nervous system and sense organs. Lectures of section 4, 5 + PLAB 4, 5 + SEM 3.

Each partial will consist of: written evaluations: objective tests based in lectures, SEM and PLAB contents.

• Test evaluation - Multiple-choice questions: test with 5 answers, only 1 true and with a penalty of 0.25 points for incorrect answer. This test represents 60% of the partial mark.
• No test evaluation - This test represents 35% of the partial mark.

The mark of each partial = test evaluation (60%) + no test evaluation (35%) + Continuous Evaluation (5%).  A grade below 5.0, the student will NOT have eliminated partial matter. In these cases, the student will have to submit to the examination of recovery of the partial not eliminated.

LAB CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT

Continuous assessment is a 10% of the final mark of the subject (5% first partial exam + 5% second partial exam). At the end of each PLAB, the students will answer questions based on the identification of anatomic structures. The mark of continuous evaluation will be the result of summing up all marks of each PLAB at the end of the semester. The mark for students not showing up in the PLAB will be a 0. The mark of the lab continuous assessment will be given after the partial exams. There is not recovery exam for lab continuous assessment even if this mark is < 5,00.  

RECOVERY EXAM:

The students who have eliminated subjects in the partial evaluations will not be obligated to make the final evaluation or recovery.
The subject will schedule a final assessment, in accordance with the Faculty’s teaching calendar. 

Students with the following criteria have to attend the final evaluation:

• Students who have not eliminated material in 1 or 2 partials.
• Students who have not submitted to any of the partial exams, regardless if they have attended or not to practices or seminars.
• Students who have eliminated material but want to upgrade one or both partial exams. In these cases:
• An email must be sent to the coordinator of the subject at least 1 week before the recovery exam.
• Although the student presents to the recovery exam to upgrade, it is mandatory to have a minimum grade of 5.0 on the partial exam of the recovery exam. Otherwise, the student will have suspended the subject.

The recovery exam of each partial will consist of written evaluations: objective tests based in lectures, SEM and PLAB contents (60% test + 40% no test evaluation).  The student who has to recover the 2 partials, will recover the 1st partial + the 2nd partial. It will have, then, a partial note of recoveryof the 1st part and another of the 2nd part. The continuous evaluation will not be taken into account for the recovery mark.

To pass the recovery exam, The student needs a grade of 5.0 to pass the recovery exam. In case the student will NOT have approved the partial recovery exam and therefore the student will have suspended the subject. 

SINGLE ASSESSMENT:

This subject does not provide the single assessment system 

GRADE OF THE SUBJECT:

Grade of the subject = 1st partial (50%) + 2n partial(50%).

The final grade of the subject will have a numerical expression, with a decimal on the scale of 0-10 and with the qualitativeequivalence in accordance with the criteria of the UAB, of “suspens” (0-4.9), “aprovat” (5.0-6.9), “notable” (7.0 -8.9) and “excellent” (9.0-10.0). Following indications of the UAB will be rounded off to the nearest whole number when it is one tenth of a value that entails a qualitative change of qualification. The honour distinction will be among students who have achieved an excellent qualification. The number of license plates awarded may not exceed 5% as established by the academic regulations of the UAB.

To pass the subject it is necessary to obtain a minimum grade of 5.0 in each part (1st and 2n partial), and a 5.0 in the Grade of the subject. In case that a part has a good mark but in the other part the mark is less than 5.0, the student's mark will be 4.8 points maximum, although the weighted sum of the two parts is greater than or equal to 5.0. The mark of each part is that obtained in the partial exams or in the recovery exam.

It is considered a non-evaluable student, who has NOT performed a minimum of two evaluation activities.

ANNOUNCEMENTS, REVISIONS:
Exams (day, hour, classroom ...) and revision of the marks will be announced through the UAB moodle. The procedure forreviewing marks will be in accordance with the current regulations of the UAB and in any case be individually.
