Summary/Abstract: The present study aims to identify which is the evaluation modalities applied in the measurement of academic performance. In order to discover them, we applied a semi structured interview to the students of Mathematics – Informatics Faculty, Mathematics department, a contingent of 72 interviewed subjects. The interview contains 10 questions about the evaluation modalities of academic performance. Therefore we present and analyse 5 questions from our interview. An analyse of the answers given by students highlight the fact that the most frequent form of evaluation is written exams, during half-yearly periods of examination. The students consider this form of evaluation as the most objective one due to the fact that it reflects with accuracy the knowledge and abilities level.
