Assessment

Internal preparation will be tracked through the end-of-topic tests/assessment points 1 - 4 and mock module exams taken from past exam papers. Understanding will be informally assessed weekly through homework tasks and short keyword tests. Practical endorsement: all students are required to master 12 practical assessments over their two years of study. They will complete this as the practical component of their course. Externally, the two-year work will be assessed through external exams after the second year of study. The exams will be testing the depth and breadth of the students' understanding.
