An oral exam will be possible to increase the grade. This oral exam will be essential to obtain an honors degree.

 

2.-The second qualification requires a previous qualification of 3.5 points in the general average of the activities. (out of 10).

 

3.-If a  student  copies or tries to copy in a final exam will get a 0 in the exam. A student who submits a plagiarized  text will receive a 0 and a warning. In case of repetition of that behavior, the student will fail his qualification.

 

4.-The exceptional examination includes an oral or written exam on the established syllabus (50% of the qualification), a commented practical test (25%) and an exam with short questions in the form of a test or oral (25%). The same recovery system as for continuous qualification will apply. Guidelines approved by the Faculty of Law for this class of examination will be followed.

 

4.-A student will receive his qualification if he has carried out a set of activities whose weight is equivalent to a minimum of 2/3 parts of the total qualification of the subject. If the value of the activities carried out does not reach this limit, the professor may consider that qualification is not allowed.

 

5.-The use of Artificial Intelligence is subject to the restrictions foreseen by the Faculty of Law of the UAB. Specifically, it is not allowed in exams, but it is allowed in practical activities under these conditions: the tools used must be specified and a critical reflection on the process and final result of the activity must be included. Lack of transparency is considered academic dishonesty and may result in a partial ortotal penalty in the grade, as well as more serious sanctions.
