Last update: RNDr. Nataša Šebková, Ph.D. (12.10.2021)

Examination of Cell Biology for geobiology will take the form of a written test. Each test will be multiple choice test, contains 20 questions. Test also includes 2 questions, students will answer in writing.
For each correctly answered question 1 to 20 counts four points, for two correct 2 points, for one correct one point. For the correct answer in the written part student receives 5 points. In the test, it is possible to reach a maximum of 90 points. To meet the test student must receive a minimum of 60 points.
