Conditions for acceptance of the semester
Obtaining the signature is automatic if the number of absences are not higher than 25%.
Mid-term exams
Students take a test in week 13, which includes theoretical questions and calculations related to the exercises. To practice the calculations, sample problems are provided in the official practice note at the end of each chapter. The result of the test will be the practical grade. In the event of a failed test, two make-ups are possible during the exam period.
Making up for missed classes
Those students who missed the test due to medical reasons can write the tests at the end of the semester.
