Assessment system Assessment forms and points:
and criteria The assessment of the knowledge - is accomplished by
100 points evaluation system. During the semester student
gathers 60 points in intermediate assessment and 40 points
in final exam (total 100 points).
Intermediate assessment involves the following
components:

 Activity -20 points(cased based discussion,


teamwork)

Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University


 clinical skills - 20 points(clinical diary)
 Presentation - 5 points
 Midterm exam -15 points
Final Exam - 40 points
written part-20 points(cases, esseys, MCQ)
OSCE- 20 points

Total grade - 100 points


See the Evaluation Criteria in the Evaluation Guide.
Prerequisites for the admission to the exam:
