YS of the corresponding degree will be multiplied by the ratio of completed credits to total credits of the degree.	3/5-1
AS (Area of study): maximum 1 (value for Physics and Physical Engineering); awarded by panel, taking into consideration suitability of previous studies for a PhD in Physics.	0-1
IT (Institution ): maximum of 1 (values for Portuguese universities). This factor is determined by the evaluation panel, using publicly available information on the institution(s) where the degrees were obtained.
