"A partir de la segunda matricula, la evaluación de la asignatura podrá consistir, a decisión del profesor(es), en una prueba de síntesis, que permite la evaluación de los resultados de aprendizaje previstos en la guía docente de la asignatura."
It sounds like they are saying that if the student has taken the course before, they don't need to do all the exams again, but just a sort of "summary" test/exam. Is there a better way of saying that, since I'm not finding any hits for those terms? Thanks!

a summary test or exam
https://www.uab.cat/web/estudios/grado/informacion-academica...
Debe ser el texto de origen.
Se menciona varias veces "de síntesis".
Se presenta como una prueba de revisión de contenidos en segunda o tercera matrícula (repetición de curso pues) y fin de estudios.
Por ej.
Este proceso de evaluación continuada no impide, en ningún caso, el establecimiento de pruebas finales de síntesis. La cualificación final de una asignatura o módulo no se puede basar únicamente en un prueba de síntesis final, excepto los supuestos previstos en la normativa para la evaluación de las asignaturas en tercera matrícula y para la convocatoria extraordinaria de final de estudios.
A partir de la segunda matrícula, la evaluación de la asignatura o del módulo podrá consistir, a decisión del profesor o profesora, en una prueba de síntesis que permita la evaluación de los resultados de aprendizaje en la guía docente de la asignatura.
La convocatoria extraordinaria de fin de estudios consiste en una prueba de síntesis en la que se evaluarán única y exclusivamente los resultados de aprendizaje definidos en las guías docentes de la asignatura o módulo del curso académico anterior.
Creo que algo como summary test puede funcionar.
Quizás haya una expresión mejor pero no se trataría de.convalidación ni exención.
Asi, en el caso de segunda o tercera matrícula, se puede suponer que se trata de averiguar qué sabe y qué no sabe el examinando o examinanda. Es la misma asignatura repetida por no haberla aprobado el curso anterior.
Ojalá oriente.
Saludos

Could work too but the idea of synthesis is not explicit.

exemption exam
https://students.business.columbia.edu/records-registration/...
We are strong believers in the value of our core curriculum. However, we recognize that many of our students have considerable background in certain areas of our academic program, and we wish to grant them the flexibility to take additional electives in place of fixed core courses whose content they have already mastered. Such mastery is determined by passing an exemption exam, which is comparable to a final exam in a given subject.

Option 2 CHALLENGE EXAM
Challenge Exams
Some university requirements can be fulfilled through Exemption or Challenge Exams. Challenge Exams carry credit and a grade, while Exemption Exams only fill a requirement.

Earning course credit through Challenge Examinations is equivalent to passing a cumulative, end-of-the-term examination or a series of comparable exams.

Recap exam
I have found this:
Madhyamik board schools will have the liberty to test their students in other subjects as well. Those failing in these recap tests will be made to appear in remedial examinations.
The recap examinations, known as baseline surveys in the board’s jargon, will be designed to test whether students have acquired a proper concept of subjects they studied in the previous class ...

evaluation test
The answer could well lie in the question: '...permite la evaluación de los resultados de aprendizaje...'
Example sentence:
Evaluation Test means a written test on general information you should have retained during each period of your apprenticeship.

summative evaluation
A Summative Evaluation occurs at the end of an evaluation cycle and provides feedback that informs an educator’s practice, showing where s/he stands relative to standards and goals, and what s/he can work on next.
Note from asker:
| No es esta. En el summative evaluation se asesora al profesor, en cambio aquí están hablando de asesorar a un alumno (que tomado el curso anteriormente pero no lo ha aprobado) |
Discussion
I wonder indeed if the challenge (or exemption) exam is the equivalence, as it seems to be something not for repeaters, which is the clear sense in most cases in the found reference. And in the final course test, which is a "convocatoria extraordinaria" we would have to confirm if it takes place after a first one ("ordinaria", repeaters again then) or not.
La convocatoria extraordinaria de fin de estudios consiste en una prueba de síntesis en la que se evaluarán única y exclusivamente los resultados de aprendizaje definidos en las guías docentes de la asignatura o módulo del curso académico anterior.
Strange when it says "fin de estudios" (suggesting a global test) but then refers to previous lective year.
In which case you can think in challenge/exemption? When you are new student or you change your faculty/university. For repeaters or a final test, I don't think so.
e.g. from Austin Community College:
"If you feel your background, education, and experience provide sufficient knowledge in a subject area, you may take a course challenge exam. Earning credit through challenge examinations is equivalent to passing a cumulative, end-of-the-term examination."
In the Spanish text it is referring precisely to a student who, due to having taken the course before, but not passed it for whatever reason (absence, illness, not turning in final assignment, etc.) can take an exam to prove she/he has that knowledge without having to retake the entire course and sit the end-of-year examinations for it.
Another US state college states: "Challenge Exams (Credit for Prior Learning)"... are "designed to assess your knowledge of the learning outcomes of a particular course."
--i.e. word for word what my ES text says: "permite la evaluación de los resultados de aprendizaje previstos..."
...But no one has proposed it as a term in proz so as to select it (except as an option B to another answer). :)
