Assessment methods
The final evaluation of the course contains also results of the tests from practicals of both semesters and results of colloquium test.

The final mark is calculated by following method:

Relative weight of the mark from tests: 30 %
Relative weight of the mark from oral exam: 70 %

To calculate mark from the tests the following method will be used:
The summary score from all tests in courses VLFA07212c, VLFA07212p, VLFA08222c, and VLFA08222p is 230 pts. Minimum to pass through the course to the oral exam is 128 pts.
A = 210-230 pts
B = 190-209 pts
C = 160-189 pts
D = 140-159 pts
E = 128-139 pts
F = less than 128 pts

To calculate mark from the oral examthe following method will be used:
Three different questions are chosen by students from three different sets of questions at oral exam. Moreover the student answers additional questions of examinator. Drawn questions from General and Special pharmacology and the additional questions have relative weight of 30 %. The question on essential drugs has realtive weight 10 % in the final mark of the oral exam. When student is evaluated by F for any of these questions the overall rating of oral exam is also F.

In case of success with the ROPOT test (at least 40 pts.), but classification F from the oral part, students enter the oral part next time and for the final mark the score from the last ROPOT attempt is used.
