Evaluation Methodology
Evaluation with two components: practical component evaluated through reports and works related to the PL classes (40%) and theoretical component evaluated through mini-tests in class or written exam (60%). Anyone who does not score at least 9 points in the practical component is excluded from the examination. Approval is obtained with an average of at least 10 points, provided that the exam grade is 9 or higher.
