Exam(s) in session
Any session
- In-person
written exam ( multiple-choice questionnaire )
Additional information:
Written examination in MCQ format.
Please note:
The final grade of the course is based on the parts "cognition" and "language". The student must obtain a mark of at least 10/20 in each part of the examination.
In case of failure in one of the parts, the final mark will correspond to the failing mark.
In other cases (passing or failing both parts), the final mark will be calculated on the basis of all the questions in both parts (overall average).
For the second session, there is no carry-over of marks and the student must re-sit both parts. In other words, passing one of the two parts in a previous examination session does not result in a waiver of that part when the examination is retaken.

Organizational remarks

Students are authorized to record lectures strictly for their personal use, in the context of an academic purpose, but the reproduction and the distribution of these recordings are forbidden.
Students will be informed, as soon as possible, about how they will be allowed to see their examination papers after the first and the second exam sessions. Modalities will depend on the current health situation.
