Intermediate tests and final exams
-
It is possible to pass the exam with intermediate tests.
Intermediate tests will be offered on these dates.
-
I test: Thursday October 31st, 3.30pm, room XX. It is not necessary to register to take the exam; just come on time to the exam room.
-
II test: Friday December 20th, 4.30pm, room XX (only students who obtained a grade in the first test can attend the second test)
-
Participation to the intermediate tests does not limit
the participation to the exams.
-
A positive grade obtained at the intermediate tests is lost when a
student attends an exam and gives the professor his/her work for evaluation.
- Transformation of intermediate tests results into an official grade:
- students with Data bases 2 as single course have to register for
any exam in the winter session to have the grade
officially recorded.
- students with Data bases 2 as a module of an integrated
course can have the grade officially recorded only when a grade is
obtained on the other module. If a positive grade is obtained for Data bases 2 (exam or intermediate tests)
and no grade is available for the other module, no action is required to accept the vote
(to reject a grade, an email must be written before the end of the exam session).
When a positive grade is also obtained for the other module,
the student must register for the exam and send an email to the professor detailing
the grades and dates of both exams.
