Continuous evaluation:
By carrying out two tests, the classification of each test must be greather or equal to 8,5 values and the combined classification of the two tests calculated by the formula presented below must be greater than or equal to 9,5 points.
Students can repeat one of the tests on the regular exam date.
Exam Assessment:
Carrying out an exam with a classification greater than or equal to 9.5 points.
Students with a final classification higher than 17 will have to take an oral test or will receive a final grade of 17 valeus.
Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final
CF = 0,5 x CT1 + 0,5 x CT2;
CF – Final Classification,
CT1 – Test 1 Classification,
CT2 – Test 2 Classification,
