<li style="margin-bottom:15px;">The student must maintain a cumulative grade point average on exams of '''78%''' in order to progress. The weighted average of all tests and examinations will be calculated first. If the average of test and exam grades is less than '''78%''', that will be the course grade. If this score is greater than or equal to '''78%''', then other evaluation scores will be added and the resulting average must be '''78%''' or greater in order to pass | <li style="margin-bottom:15px;">The student must maintain a cumulative grade point average on exams of '''78%''' in order to progress.

<li style="margin-bottom:15px;">The following will be included in the '''test/exam''' portion of the grade. Note: this portion of each student’s grade must be 78% or higher without rounding in order to pass the course:<br /><br /> | |||
Test/exams are defined as 50 or more questions that evaluate the application of content from this course and previous coursework to patient situations. Each didactic course will give a minimum of 2 tests/exams. <br /><br /> | |||
If a student misses the scheduled test/exam, the faculty reserves the right to prepare a test in an alternate form such as essay, short answer and multiple choice. The test/exam should be worth the same number of points as the original. The date and time will be determined by the course coordinator/instructor. <br /><br /> | |||
'''Additional assignments''', as offered by each individual campus, will ''be included in the final grade once the student has met the 78% test average requirement''. Examples of these assignments include but are not limited to:<br /> | |||
-Quizzes <br /> | |||
-Individual readiness assurance test (IRAT)/Group readiness assurance test (GRAT) <br /> | |||
-participation <br /> | |||
-presentations <br /> | |||
-papers <br /> | |||
-Assessment technologies institute (ATI) proctored assessments<br /><br /> | |||
These activities evaluate the student’s ability to be prepared for class and to apply the concepts in a variety of settings.</li> | |||
