The final test of General and Clinical Pathology are conducted together within the same exam. Hybrid examination with two sections: written exam with 24 multiple-choice questions (scored 1 point for correct response; -0.2 points for wrong response; 0 point for unanswered questions) and oral exam (with a maximum score of 12). The exam includes questions of both General and Clinical Pathology.
The final marks are in a scale of 1 to 30 and reflect the cumulative and integrated assessment of the different teachers.
A grade of 30/30 will be awarded to students who perform fully satisfactorily in both the written and oral sections of the exam, while Honors will be awarded to those who show particular clarity and thoroughness of exposition.
Students must enroll via the ESSE3 university platform and must equip themselves with a suitable electronic device to take the written test on the Moodle platform.
