Other comments and second call

FINAL GRADE It will be necessary to eliminate the four exams (2 theoretical and 2 practical) separately to pass the subject, requiring a minimum grade of 60% in each of them. The final grade will be obtained using the following weighted average: Arithmetic average of the two theoretical partial exams: 70% Arithmetic average of the two practical partial exams: 30% Other evaluation systems: +10% EXTRAORDINARY CALL The two theoretical partial exams will be repeated and the two practical partial exams, with the same format and composition, so that students can pass those not eliminated in the ordinary call. The final grade will be obtained in the same way as in the ordinary call, replacing the grades from the non-eliminated exams with those obtained in the new recovery exams. During the evaluation tests, it will not be possible to use printed materials or electronic resources (calculators, tablets, phones, computers, etc.), except for those tests that, under the express direction of the teacher, require the use of any of these resources. Likewise, the student is expressly prohibited from speaking during the written evaluation test, except with the express permission of the teacher, as well as any other behavior or action that represents fraud in said evaluation test. If any irregularity occurs during the corresponding exam or evaluation test, the exam will be immediately withdrawn, the student will be expelled and graded as a fail. In any case, the provisions of the internal regulations of the ULe included in the document "Guidelines for action in cases of plagiarism, copying or fraud in exams or evaluation tests" will be followed (Approved Permanent Commission of the Governing Council 01/29 /2015).
