Kontrola studia se uskutečňuje formou 3 průběžných testů (max.dosažitelný počet bodů z každého testu 15). Zápočet bude udělen při min.60%ní úspěšnosti, tj. dosažení 27 bodů. Při nesplnění této podmínky je možno získat zápočet na základě úspěšně absolvovaného souhrnného zápočtového testu (60%). Tento test se bude psát po ukončení semestru.
