The final assessment of the curricular units consists, as a rule, of a written exam with a maximum duration of three hours, under an anonymous regime, designed to assess the extent to which students have achieved the curricular goals and learning objectives of such curricular units. Other complementary elements of assessment may be used, as long as they are announced to the students orally and in writing at the beginning of the semester.
