Conditions for acceptance of the semester

None.

Mid-term exams

The students receive a practice grade based on their performance during the semester. The grade will be registered in the Neptun as a midsemester grade. The grade must be at least satisfactory as a prerequisite for taking the semester exam. Around the 11th week of the semester, a written test is the base of the practice grade. The test covers the subjects of practice classes of the first 10 weeks of the semester and 50% of the available points must be reached for acceptance of the semester. Should someone fail or want to improve, they can do it one time before the end of the semester. On a final failure (that is, after the improvement attempt still below 50%), the student cannot have semester accepted.

Making up for missed classes

There is no way to make up for missed classes.
