Continuous assessment is carried out through a theoretical assessment form, two simulated practice group assignments, two oral communication group assignments, and a UC dossier. The final grade is calculated using the following formula: 40%* Assessment frequency + 7.5% * 2 Oral Communications + 10% * 2 moments of Simulated Practice + 25% UC Dossier. Carrying out a supplementary assessment test, whenever the average of the partial classifications is equal to or greater than 9.5 values Exam: a written test and an oral test.
