Examination of the learning outcomes:
Attendance at lectures is mandatory.
In one semester 20% of lectures can be missed in justified cases.
In case of absence, the absence can only be justified in the manner specified in the Study Rules of the TVSZ and FOK.
Requirement of the admission to the exam: no more than 20% certified absence in the classroom teaching. (3 absences allowed)
In case of more than 3 absences, the student is not allowed to take the exam!
MTOs:
Two MTOs will be written during the semester.
1. MTO: 2024. 10. 22. 17:45 - 18:15
The 1. MTO is mandatory! The absence from the 1. MTO counts as an absence from the lecture!
The 1. MTO is mandatory! The absence from the 1. MTO counts as an absence from the lecture!
Place: Orvosi Fizikai és Orvosi Informatikai Intézet, Korányi fasor 9. Rooms: 12., 22., 24.
2. MTO: 2024. 12 03. 17:45 - 18:15
The 1. MTO is mandatory! The absence from the 1. MTO counts as an absence from the lecture!
Place: Orvosi Fizikai és Orvosi Informatikai Intézet, Korányi fasor 9. Rooms: 12., 22., 24.
In case that the average result of the two MTOs reaches 80% the grade of the colloquium is offered at the end of the semester.
If 80% is reached, it means the offered grade 4 (good), if the averaged result of the two MTOs reaches 90%, the offered grade is 5 (excellent).
Exam:
The first and second exam will be written. You need to reach 60% to pass the exam.
The grades are determined as follows:
0-59% failed (1)
60-69% pass (2)
70-79% satisfactory (3)
80-89% good (4)
90-100% excellent (5)
The second repeated - your third - exam and any further exams are oral.
The potential improvement of the examination will be oral (in case somebody wants a better grade than the offered, for example 5 instead of 4).
The unsatisfactory semester mark can be corrected during the examination period in accordance with the examination regulations.
The basics of the exam:
The material of the lectures.
