Course re-exams

Reasons for not passing

When the exam team has registered your attempt, they will mark the reason in My Study Activities:

- 'NA' means your mandatory courses was not approved and you were not eligible for the exam
- 'U' means you did not attend the exam (udeblevet/absent)
- '00' means you failed and didn't meet the requirements for acceptance
- '03' means you failed and your result was unacceptable in all aspects.
- 'I' means you failed in context of pass / fail and equals '00' and '-3' on the 7-point grade scale.

Notification about registration for the re-exam

Within a week or two from your exam, the exam team will register you for your 2nd exam attempt in the re-exam period.

You will get a notification when you are registered for your re-exam via Outlook.

Check My Study Activities for a status or check Exam registration if your situation is special and you need to actively do something.

Be aware of when to (re)submit for the re-exam, if an exam submission is part of the exam format.

Check the re-exam format

Always check the course description to see the exam form for the re-exam.

Sometimes the exam format can change and what is required and how you prepare for the exam will change.

If the course has new content you will be examed in the newest content.

Sometimes a set group exam can change into an individual exam and vice versa.

It can also happen that an oral exam becomes an exam submission instead.

Following a course again

Typically for your 3rd exam attempt you need to register for the course again.

This means you also have to follow the course again and pass if there are any mandatory activities or other requirements.

Ask the course manager if it is possible to be exempt from any activities or requirements passed the first time attending.

In some cases you can just read-up on the course by yourself, but always check with the course manager.

Individual submission

For a re-exam with the same format as for the ordinary exam:

- You can re-submit the exact same exam assignment

- You can continue working on the same assignment and submit a revised version.

- You can write a completely new exam assignment. If you choose to use material from your first assignment, remember to upload it as an appendice and reference it.

Group submission

For a re-exam with the same format as for the ordinary exam:

- The group can re-submit the exact same exam assignment.

- If the whole group missed the oral exam, the group can continue working on the same assignment and submit a revised version.

- The group can choose to write a completely new group exam assignment. If the group uses material from the first assignment, they need to upload it as an appendice, and reference it.
