    • The exam consists of 10 questions.

    • Each question is worth maximum 5 points. Total maximum is 50 points. 
    • Minimum for passing is 25 points.
    • Grading focuses on conceptual understanding. In numerical tasks, minor errors are not penalized, as long the general approach is correct. 
    • Please note that fabricated answers – that is, fishing points by generating answers that are blatantly false or might in real life have damaging consequences – will be penalized.

    Tips

    • Monitor your time use. 
    • Try to cover all questions you know you can answer. 
    • Focus on clear, concise presentation. 
    • We recommend sketching each answer on a separate piece of paper before committing them on this sheet.
