Second call: Additional exam with a weight of 50% of the final grade that replaces the first call exam grade. Other components in the evaluation will be maintained. The use of any kind of communication device is strictly forbidden unless otherwise stated by the instructor of the course. The students requiring the second call exam, the final mark will be calculated as follows. If Q2 is the mark of the second call exam and Q2>5, the subject is pass. The final grade, however, is Q2 = max(5, (Q1+Q2)/2). In this way we stress the importance of the continuous evaluation and the work done along the academic year. |
