Code of Studies and Regulations

Mid-term exams

Students have to write three assessments during the semester and they have to reach 60 % after average calculation. After two assessments if students reach average 60 % taking into account both tests, writing the third assesment it not compulsory. The third assessments (which is considered as the 1st retake) has to above 60,1 %. If the student fails on the 3rd assessment, there is still chance for the 2nd retake, where student has to reach 60,1% for the acceptance of the semester. In case of confirmed absence from the assessment, re-take chance is sossible for the student. Missing the re-take results 0 % assessment.

At the end of semester, students take written exam. The date of "A" chance exam is in determined date for students finishing the course. Chance "B" and "C"are oral exams, which is preceded by the "Minimum Test" (MT). To write the MT, students have at most 30 minutes, and will be evaluated percent rating. Those students, who achieve less than 60% in MT, unsatisfactory grade will be assessed and cannot pass them to the oral part of the exam.

Oral part includes two topics. In the case of any part done with insufficient knowledge, will result in assessment of the exam to unsatisfactory grade.

In addition to the exam topics, part of the exam is answering questions that aim at assessing the general knowledge of the student.
