Examinations
An examination is an oral or written test that you take during or at the end of a course to demonstrate the knowledge you have acquired in the subject. If you fail to pass an exam you are able to try again at a later date by sitting a retake exam.
Written examinations
The general rule is that you must always register for the exam in Ladok no later than 12 days before the date of examination. When registered, you will receive a code that you use instead of your name as the examinations are marked anonymously by the teachers. You must bring a valid form of identification to the exam hall.
