Examination Methods

Written exam with 10-15 open question exercises. Duration approximately 2 hours. No books or notes are allowed. Instead, it is necessary to bring a calculator, pen and identification card. The sheets are distributed by the teacher.
In the event of a health emergency, the exam can be carried out online with questions and exercises on the entire program. Consultation of books or notes during the exam is prohibited.

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