" All students are obliged to read the theory prior to the tutorial (Barrett: Ganong´s "Review of Medical Physiology, Section I-chapters 1,2; Section II-chapters 4,5). " "The tutorials are obligatory, the presence is the condition for obtaining the credit. " All students are allowed to substitute only one tutorial during one semester - those who will have more than one absence will not obtain the credit from tutorials. "doc.
