The oral exam will take place on Monday and Tuesday, March 22-23, 2010 in U49C or U49D.
The starting time are: Monday at 10:30, and Tuesday at 9:00.
The following is the normal procedure for the exam:
First, the student draws a question from the list of exam questions. The examination starts immediately after, i.e., there is no preparation time. The student may give a presentation of a duration of approximately 10 minutes. After this, questions will asked in relation to the question which was drawn as well as the rest of the curriculum. The student may bring a list of about 10 keywords in order to remember which topics to cover. The exam form is discussion-oriented using the blackboard. Students are not allowed to bring their own transparencies, computer presentations, or similar. The total examination time will usually be about 20-30 minutes.
During the exam, a few transparencies from the book will be available: Grammar 3.1, Table 3.19, Grammar 3.26, Figure 3.27, Table 3.28, Graph 10.1, Figure 10.2.
Before the oral exam, you should see the examination sequence. It is not possible to calculate the exact examination time from the placement in the sequence, since students earlier on the list may not show up. Thus, students are expected to show up plenty early. In principle, all students who are taking the exam on a particular date are supposed to show up when the examination starts, i.e., at the time the first student is scheduled. This is partly because of the way external examiners are paid, which is by the number of students who show up for examination. For this particular exam, we do not expect many no-shows, so showing up 1-2 hours before the estimated time of the exam is safe.
