Calculation formula of final grade

The student will be able to pass the Systematic Anatomy I of the student who succeeds in one of the following three assessment processes.

1.EVALUATION DISTRIBUTED ALONG THE SEMESTER. It consists of the following components: two theoretical and practical exams to be held on the same day (i) in the interim week (in a week to be appointed by the Pedagogical Council, it will probably be the week of November) and (ii) in the final week of the semester; see composition of these exams below. These exams are priced at 9 points each (7 points for the theoretical test and 2 for the practical test). Theoretical tests require a minimum grade of 3 in 7 values ​​and the practices ("gymkhana") require a minimum of 0.8 in 2. A maximum of 2 values ​​will be assigned by the teacher of the practical class to each student regarding their performance over practical classes (each teacher in the practical class will define in the first practical class which criteria for continuous assessment they will apply in their classes). If the student does not attend the practical classes (more than 25% of unexcused absences), or if he misses any of the two exams, or fails to pass only one of them, he will have to present the Final Exam that will evaluate the whole subject of the discipline (if the student has obtained a positive grade in only one of the two exams done during the semester, this does not eliminate this matter of knowledge to be evaluated in the Final Exam).

2. FINAL EXAM. It covers the entire subject of AS1 and consists of a theoretical and practical test, with a quotation of 14 values ​​for the theoretical test, 4 values ​​for the practical test and 2 values ​​of the evaluation carried out in the practical classes (if repeated, the quotation will be 15 values for the theoretical exam and 5 values ​​for the practical test). The theoretical test will consist of 45 questions, 40 of them with multiple answers and 5 questions to be answered in writing (these are worth twice as many as multiple answers). Ten of the 45 multiple-answer questions and 2 to answer in writing will be on topics covered in the theoretical-practical class (Tuesdays from 3 pm to 4 pm), that is, on the peripheral nervous system and oral anatomy (topics not offered to medical students from Anatomy ICBAS I). If the student does not succeed through the final exam, he / she will have the opportunity to take the appeal exam.
3. APPEAL EXAMINATION. Practical test (5 points) and theoretical test (15 points). To have access to this exam the student will have to have frequency in the practical classes (presence in 75% of the classes) in the current academic year or in previous academic years. This same resource exam will be used as a grade improvement exam for students who register for it.

EXAMINATIONS OF THE INTERIM WEEK AND THE FINAL WEEK:

The mid-week exam will be held in a week to be appointed by the Pedagogical Council (probably in November); that of the final week in the last week of the semester (the exact day also to be decided by the Pedagogical Council). Both exams will have a theoretical test (7 points) and a practical test (2 points) that take place on the same day (practice in the morning; theoretical in the afternoon). Theoretical tests will consist of 30 multiple answer questions (5 paragraphs, the student can only mark 1 point, the wrong ones do not discount) and 5 questions to be answered in writing in short text (about 10 lines). Seven of the 30 multiple-answer questions and 2 to answer in writing will be on topics covered in the theoretical-practical class (Tuesdays from 3 pm to 4 pm), that is, on the peripheral nervous system and oral anatomy (topics not offered to medical students from Anatomy ICBAS I). The material that is evaluated in the mid-week exam will be excluded from the evaluation of the final week of the semester. Each question to be answered in writing will have twice the price of each multiple answer question.

PRACTICAL TESTS (OR “GINCANAS”) FOR THE INTERIM WEEK AND THE FINAL WEEK: To be held during the morning of the same days as the theoretical tests. They consist of the written identification of 2 elements in each of 10 anatomical pieces studied in practical classes or exhibited at the Museum of Anatomy. Of the 20 anatomical elements to be identified in these practical exams, the student is required to correctly identify a minimum of 8 of the 20 elements in the mid-term and final week practical tests, otherwise he will have to undergo a final or appeal exam. These exams will be the same for dental students and medical students.
