Conditions for participation in graduation test, 2 control tests with average rating of 60% or more. A student who fails to seminars - ie. resulting interim assessment tests is less than 60%, will write the replacement test of the whole substance. To pass the test he must achieve at least 60%. Any copying, recording or leaking tests, use of unauthorized tools, aids and communication devices, or other disruptions of objectivity of exams (credit tests) will be considered non-compliance with the conditions for course completion as well as a severe violation of the study rules. Consequently, the teacher will finish the exam (credit test) by awarding grade "F" in the Information System, and the Dean will initiate disciplinary proceedings that may result in study termination.
