• 100% attendance

• every absence has to be substituted
• substitution has to be agreed in advance by the teachers of both the regular and the substituting practice
• one absence can be excused by a teacher, any other absence has to be excused formally by the Faculty through the IS
• late-comers cannot join the practice and have to substitute the missed practice

• Complete set of protocols

• protocols are elaborated using the official template
• protocols must include labeled drawings of all required slides, schemes or electronograms 
• magnification or a scale bar must be included in every drawing
• protocols can be only in paper form and they meet the mandatory formal and quality criteria
• students have to demonstrate the complete set of protocols signed by a teacher to have the credits granted
• students can be asked during the exam to demonstrate protocols from both semesters of the Histology and Embryology course 

• Testing

• every student is examined four times per semester by written, "partial", test
• tests can be done in the regular practice only, not in the substituting practice 
• all four tests have to be passed (4/4)
• test questions are both image-based and textual. Questions examine knowledge of structures studied in the previous practical lesson, including the necessary theory, English and Latin names and terminology, histophysiology as well as developmental and embryonic context, and the theory for the current practical lesson
• all images are available online through the Atlas of Histology and the Atlas of Cytology and Embryology
• if 3 of 5 questions in the partial tests are answered correctly, the test is considered as passed

• Resits

• • if a student fails a partial test, the partial test can be repeated once until the end of semester (1st resit). If this fifth test is passed (4/5), conditions for getting credits are met
  • if a student fails in the 1st resit test, then the "semestral" (2nd resit) test is scheduled at the end of the semester. This semestral test covers all the topics of the semester. Pass limit of the semestral test is 60%. The semestral test can be organized as ROPOT in the IS or in the written form. If the semestral test is not passed, the credits cannot be granted
  • students with more than 30% of absences have to pass the semestral test. Also any unexcused absence results in mandatory passing of the semestral test
