The evaluation of learning takes place through two midterm tests, each evaluated 16 points. Each test consists of four short exercises (maximum grade 8 points) and eight multiple choice questions. The marks obtained in the two tests will be added in order to arrive at a final evaluation expressed out of thirty. Financial calculators can be used.
