The final grade is composed based on the following categories:
Written Exam determines 100% of the final mark.
Within the Written Exam category, the following assignments need to be completed:
The final grade is determined as follows: A weighted average of the different components (hematology, kidney, AHT) is made, provided that the student achieves at least 8/20 for each of the components. If the student obtains a mark lower than 8/20 for one of the components, the final mark for the entire course is equal to the lowest mark. With a result of at least 10/20, the partial result of an examination component is transferred to the second examination period, provided that the weighted average is at least 12/20. In this case (i.e. only if the student did not obtain the credit), the student who nevertheless wishes to retake the examination component can send an e-mail to the lecturer at the latest before the start of the second examination period. Once the student has reported that he wishes to waive his partial mark, he will irrevocably lose this partial mark. A partial result is not carried over to the next academic year. Absence on an exam component leads to a 0.
