Type of Assessment - Workshop - Last names A-L
There are 5 official calls, 2 in the winter session (January-February), and 3 in the summer session, June-September. In addition, there are 2 calls, one in November and one in April, during periods of didactic silence. In case of failure, students can apply for the next first useful call. Passing the exams of the first year is a mandatory requirement to take the examination of Technology, Socioeconomics and Pharmaceutical Legislation. The final exam is oral about 20-40 minutes, during which the student is asked to describe and apply the topics and concepts covered in class.
Examinations are scheduled during laboratory practices that consist of a written report at the end of each exercise. At the end of the course is possible to take a written test 2 open question (15 point each) regarding the exercises and laboratory practices. Each test is passed if a grade greater than or equal to 18 is reported. The test score is valid for 1 year and allow that the above-mentioned topics are not part of the oral exams. The final exam consists of an oral exam aimed at acquiring the knowledge of the all the topics.

The exam consists in passing an oral test which concerns the entire programme. The oral exam can be taken during any exam session, listed on the University Exam Booking Service web page. There are 5 official exam sessions, 2 in the January-February winter session, and 3 in the June-September summer session. In addition, 2 exam sessions are planned, one in November and one in April, during the teaching silence periods. In the event of failure to pass, students can enroll in the next first useful session. Passing the first-year exams is a mandatory requirement in order to take the exam in Pharmaceutical Technology, Socioeconomics and Legislation. The final exam is an oral exam lasting an average of 20-40 minutes, during which the student is asked to describe and apply the topics and concepts covered in class. Accuracy (40%), completeness (40%), language properties (20%) in the answers contribute to the determination of the final mark. The test is considered passed if a grade greater than or equal to 18 is obtained.
2) During the course there are two optional written exams, open to both attending and non-attending students. The first concerns topics of Socioeconomics and Legislation 10 closed questions (3 points each) and is proposed with the "Quiz" mode of Moodle. 100% accuracy in the answers contributes to the determination of the final grade, being a single-answer test. The second test is proposed at the end of the course and concerns the pharmaceutical calculation exercises carried out during the course and the sending of the prescription through two open questions (15 points each) in Moodle "Task" mode. Accuracy (40%), completeness (40%), use of correct terminology (20%) in the answers contribute to the determination of the final grade. Passing the written tests (mark greater than or equal to 18/30) is valid for one year and makes a non-arithmetic average with the final mark.
3) For those who pass the two written tests, an oral test is scheduled on the topics of the program not included in the written tests: i.e. the theoretical part indicated on the Moodle course as: general, special and pharmaceutical forms. The final grade is the weighted average of the three grades (20% Legislation Quiz, 20% Laboratory assignment 60% Oral). Accuracy (40%), completeness (40%), use of correct terminology (20%) in the answers contribute to the determination of the final grade. The exam is considered passed with a vote greater than or equal to 18/30.
