Final Examination: 
Orale

The evaluation consists of a judgement minuted in a vote in thirtieth, and includes a written test and, later, an oral test.
To pass the written test in both modules, a minimum score of 60% is required, thus accessing the oral test will be possible.
The written test is made of 30 questions (multiple-choise or open questions with a brief answer) of General nursing and 30 similar questions of Nursing methodology in 30 minutes.
The oral exam requires knowledge of the entire program of General Nursing and Methodology courses and the assessment is independent of the outcome of the written exam. The evaluation is shared by the teachers and evaluates the knowledge, the ability to analyze and to create links between the proposed topics.
The evaluation paths of the two modules do not necessarily have to be concluded in the same session, and passing the General nursing module is considered a prerequisite for passing the Methodology module.
The teachers reserve the right to carry out intermediate tests during the development of the Nursing and Methodology modules deemed useful to facilitate learning.
