Examination Methods

The final exam consists of a written test on grammar and writing, a listening test and a conversation in Chinese. Each part of the test has a ten-points worth. Students must obtain at least 6/10 in each part of the test in order to pass the exam. All the parts of the exam must be passed in the same date: whoever wants or needs to repeat the exam must repeat all of its parts (written test, listening and conversation).
The details about the test will be publish on the e-learning page.
HSK certificates will not be accepted as substitute for the exam, nor any of its part.
Since attendance is mandatory, students who don't reach 60% of the attendance will not be admitted to the exam. Between 60% and 75% of the attendace students must prepare an additional material for the exam (see syllabus in the previous page). To justify non-attendance certificates proving a real and well-graounded reason (health, study or HSK certificates from level 2 to level 6) will be considered. These certificates should be submitted to the teacher before the exam.
At the end of the first semester a mid-term examination will be held on the first half of the programme (lessons 1-8 of the manual). The students who pass the mid-term examination will prepare the second half of the programme for the final exam (lessons 9-17) and the final mark will be the average of the two exams. Those who don't pass the mid-term exam must prepare the whole programme (lessons 1-17 of the manual) for the final exam.
The score of the mid-term examination is valid for a year, until the second exam in february 2018. After the final exam, the students who had passed the mid-term examination can choose to repeat the second part of the exam (lessons 9-17) or the entire syllabus (lessons 1-17), losing the mark of the mid-term examination.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE
