Examination Methods

The written admission test, consisting of five open questions, will focus mainly on the general part and knowledge of the main historical facts that occurred in the 16th-18th centuries, as well as on their historiographical classification.

The oral interview focuses instead on the monographic part and the in-depth readings and aims to ascertain the student's ability to critically read a book not limited to the summary.

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