EXAM rules

The final exam is taken in one day (whenever possible).

First, all the Students will be given a Test on Moodle, containing questions on the last module (Applications in Medicine).

Second, all the Student will have a 30-min Interview on Module 1. The interiew is composed of: 

- one open general subject (among those pre-exposed): the Student should describe the general features of the subject in autonomy (max: 10 min).

- two specific questions concerning the subject exposed: please note that questions will refer to Textbook papers and NOT to lesson slides. 

- One of the 5 Research Papers  (Parts 1-5) assigned will be  discussed: the Student will be asked to explain in detail one-two figures reporting specific Results, with details on the methodology used.

 The Grades obtained in the Test and in the Interview will be averaged to the Report/Activity Grade (1:1:1).

NOTE:

In the case a Student lacks the Reporting Activity, he/she will go through and additional exam, in which his/her ability to read, understand and discuss a scientific research article will be assessed. The Examiner will assign one article and the Student will be allowed two hours to read the paper, then the Examiner will ask specific questions about the article and a visit to a Genome Browser. This will assign a grade (up to 30/30) that will be averaged as above with the other two grades (Test and Interview).
