Activities S1, S2, S3 and S4, as specified in section 'Sistema de evalución' will be considered for the continuos choice. A final exam on the theorical aspects of the subject -S2 and S3- will be accomplished to evaluate skills and competences defined for the subject. This final exam provides half of the total qualification for aspect S2 and S3 in the course. In order to gain a pass, a qualification equal or greater than 4 in 10 must be obtained in the final exam and in activity S4. Furthermore, an evaluation equal or greater than 5 in 10 must be globally acquired, taking into account the mentioned conditions.

The qualification of a positively evaluated part will be preserved during the academic course.

For the non-continous option, a final exam must be accomplished. The following ratios are established for the exams contents: 7 in 10 for S2 and S3 activities, and 3 in 10 for S4 activity.  An evaluation equal or greater than 5 in 10 must be globally acquired, taking into account the mentioned conditions.   

The qualification of a positively evaluated part will be preserved during the academic course.
