Grading System

Final grades are the sum of the evaluations obtained during the two periods. A minimum grade of 70 points must be obtained in order to pass the course.

For the last three semesters (14th, 15th, and 16th semesters) students will be evaluated taken in consideration the following criteria:

• Skills and competencies developed during Hospital Rotations

• Attendance to lectures and seminars

• Approval of written and oral exams

"A" is between 90-100 points. Value 4.
"B" is between 80-89 points. Value 3.
"C" is between 70-79 points. Value 2.
"D" is between 60-69 points. Value 1. Students receiving a "D" grade must retake the course.
"F" is less than 60 points. Value 0. Students receiving a "F" grade must retake the course.

An "I" is given when the student does not complete a project, seminar, and or an examination. If the student does not complete the work within the limit of time established by the Academic Calendar, the "I" will automatically become an "F".
