The exam is oral and consists of answering two selected questions from the list the students receive at the first seminar along with the list of compulsory literature. Preparation takes 30 minutes. In order to pass the exam, the student has to answer correctly both of the questions. If the student answers satisfactorily only one question, he or she fails the exam and has to take it again. Students should take the exam with the teacher whose seminar they attended. Language skills are part of the overall assessment. |
