Ordinary Assessment

The ordinary assessment of the course will be based on the following components:

• Partial Exams (80% of the final grade):We'll have two partial exams throughout the semester. These exams will assess your understanding of the content covered to date. It's important to note that the specific weight of each partial exam may vary slightly depending on the scope and complexity of the topics evaluated in each. You'll be informed in advance about the exact weight of each partial exam once their contents are defined.
  • Condition for averaging: For partial exam grades to be averaged, it's essential to obtain a minimum grade of 3.5 in each of them.
• Virtual Campus Quizzes (20% of the final grade): Throughout the semester, you'll be assigned a series of quizzes to complete via the Virtual Campus. These quizzes are designed to reinforce your learning of key concepts and allow you to practice regularly. Under no circumstances will quizzes not submitted or submitted past the deadline be evaluated.

Resit Assessment

The resit assessment is designed to give you an opportunity to make up for the results of partial exams you didn't pass in the ordinary assessment.

• Who must take it? Students who haven't passed the course in the ordinary assessment, meaning their final grade is below 5, must take the resit assessment.
• What is recovered? In this assessment, you'll only need to resit the partial exams you failed (with a grade below 5). This means you won't need to retake the Virtual Campus quizzes, as their 20% weight will carry over from the ordinary assessment.
• Assessment format: The resit assessment will consist of a specific exam or exams for the partials you need to resit. The grade obtained in this resit assessment will replace the original grade of the failed partial for the calculation of the final grade.
• Calculation of the final grade (resit): Once the failed partials are resat, the average will be recalculated using the grades obtained in the resit (or the original grades of the passed partials) and the 20% from the Virtual Campus quizzes. To be able to average these grades, the condition that a minimum of 3.5 must be obtained in the partials (whether original or resit) still applies.

Option to Improve Grade in the Resit Assessment

If you wish to try to improve your grade, you must take the resit assessment under the following conditions:

• Completion of Both Partials: You'll be obliged to complete both partial exams for the course, regardless of the grade you obtained in them during the ordinary assessment. This means that the resit assessment for grade improvement will cover the content of both partials.
• Waiver of the Ordinary Grade: It's crucial that you understand that by opting for this grade improvement option, you automatically waive the grade obtained in the ordinary assessment. The new final course grade will be calculated entirely with the grades obtained in the two partials of the resit assessment (provided you meet the minimum grade condition of 3.5 in each to be averaged) and the 20% from the Virtual Campus quizzes.

Not Evaluated Criterion

Students will receive a "Not Evaluated" grade when the assessment activities performed have a weighting of less than 67% in the final grade.

Single Assessment

The single assessment consists of a unique synthesis test that includes the contents of the entire theory and problem program. The grade obtained in this synthesis test is 100% of the final course grade.

The single assessment test will take place on the same date set in the calendar for the last continuous assessment test (second partial) and the same ordinary assessment resit system will apply.
