Important information and rules on subject: MICROBIOLOGY
II Academy year 2011/12
Microbiology comprises with its 3 parts:
a. Bacteriology
b. Virology
c. Parasitology with Micology
During I (winter) semester, students attend lectures and practical lessons in first part of Bacteriology.
During II (summer) semester, students attend lectures and practical lessons in second part of Bacteriology,
Virology and Parasitology with Micology.
During IV semester students have colloquiums after each part of the subject Microbiology. Maximal number
of points on colloquiums in Microbiology part are:
40 points in Bacteriology (minimum for passing 21)
30 points in Virology(minimum for passing 16)
20 points in Parasitology with Micology(minimum for passing 11)
Also a part from colloquiums, students can get 30 points on their activity during lessons.
Maximal number of points for student activity in Bacteriology are 14, and 8 in Virology and Parasitology with
Micology, respectively.
Students who reach ≥ 85/120 points on colloquiums + activity, will not have to take practical exam and
will be marked 10 (ten) for that part.
MARK ON FINAL TEST in MICROBIOLOGY
Total number of questions/points on Final test in Microbiology are 100:
50 Bacteriology
26 Virology
24 Parasitology with Micology
Half from total number of points 51 is
needed for passing.
It is neccessary to have minimum points
from each fields:
26 from Bacteriology
14 from Virology
13 from Parasitology with Micology

Colloquiums participate with 30%, practical exam with 20% and final exam with 50% in the
final mark.
Final Mark represents sum of SCORE /MARK from colloquiums, practical exam and
final test
