* The student must obtain a minimum score of 5 in the test to pass the subject. If the student does not
obtain the score of 5 on both tests (the theoretical and practical block), the qualification of the approved
test is saved during the next course
* In order to pass the subject the student must obtain a minimum grade of 4 points in the part of chemistry
and physics to 3 in average is needed. But the overall score that is obtained after carrying out the
percentages of each party should be at least 5 to pass the subject.
.
-It is necessary in any of the blocks of the examination result units are correct for scoring exercises.
-Those students who for various reasons do not attend the assessment of the subject on the official date,
will do the tests with an oral exam.
-It's essential to have approved the part / exercises "solutions" to pass the subject.
*Attendance to practical laboratory classes is mandatory. For each day of absence to practices the student
will be penalized 1.5 points lower on the note for the practical test.
-Students will review the regulations posted on the website from the first day of class. It is taken into
account when assessing the compliance with this student.
-Students will have the rules and delivery date of the practice report on the website of the subject from the
first day of class. It is taken into account when assessing the compliance with this student.
-It´s not allowed the delivery of exercises, laboratory report and homework outside the established delivery
period.
MENTION OF DISTINCTION:
The mention of Distinction will be awarded to students who have achieved a score equal to or greater than 9.0.
The number of Distinctions granted will not exceed 5% of students enrolled in a subject in the corresponding
academic year unless enrollment is under 20, in which case only one Distinction may be granted. (Royal
Decree 1125/2003).
