Assessment methods

Course attendance is mandatory. 70 percent of the lectures is the minimum attendance rate to be granted the access to the 90 minutes final class test, which will take place after the class ending, within the official exam sessions. It will include 10 multiple-choice questions (10 points), 1 short answer question (6 points) and 2 problems (14 points, i.e. 7 points each). Moreover, students will be asked to present and critically discuss a topic in finance (team work) in the last scheduled meeting (about 15-20 minutes for each presentation, depending on the number of students). This will provide the participants with a maximum of 4 points (to be added to the final written exam mark). Please note that these additional extra-points will be only valid in the official exam session right after the course ending.
