Eligibility for exams

Who obtains a classification of less than one (1) in the continuous evaluations

Calculation formula of final grade

CF=0,75xEF+0,25xAD
CF: Final Classification
EF: Final Exam
AD: Continuous evaluation

Examinations or Special Assignments

Oral explications of exercises in pratical classes.

Special assessment (TE, DA, ...)

A working student has the option of being evaluated as an ordinary student or do only the final exam.

Classification improvement

Final exam.
