Exam rules (for online exams in 2020/21):
- The exam consists of a written test (with Moodle) and a compulsory oral test, both online.
- To access the oral, a grade of at least 18/30 must be obtained on the written test. The exam is passed if the final mark is at least 18/30.
- The written test and the oral test must take place in the same call.
- Under penalty of exclusion, during written tests the use of electronic devices and applications except those required (MS Teams and possibly a web browser to access to
the Moodle quiz) is not allowed. It is not possible to use books and notes.
- It is necessary to have a webcam and a microphone to have test.
A simulation of the written test is available on the site.
