There could also be a question which proposes an exercise in place of an open-ended question. In this case, it will propose a type of exercise already studied during the lab activities. The available time for the written exam is one hour and thirty minutes. Each answer will be assessed using a score ranging from zero to ten. The exam mark will consist of the average score achieved in all written answers and it will be, expressed in a score scale of thirty. There will be no oral exam.
