Ongoing evaluation TEST:
The assessment tests will take place through multiple choice questions:
30 questions to answer in 30 minutes. Wrong answers will not be counted in the negative.
EVALUATION PARAMETERS:
1. The test will be considered passed if the candidate has correctly answered at least 24 questions for each test. The entire exam will be considered passed only if both tests have been passed.
2. To calculate the final score, proceed as follows: for every two incorrect answers (considering both tests), a score will be subtracted starting from the score of 30/30.
3. In the event that only one of the tests has been passed, the candidate must take an oral exam on the part which has not been passed. In this case, for the calculation of the final grade, an average will be taken between the grade of the oral exam and that obtained in the passed itinere test.
4. In all other cases, the candidate must take an oral exam on the entire program. - Extended program
