A student who fails an examination normally cannot progress in the programme until the examination has been passed. Students who take a re-sit examination/postponed test, can continue to attend their courses until the examination results are announced, and if applicable until the result of the appeal has been announced. The student must stop attending courses and will be transferred to the following class if he/she does not appeal the examination result, or if the result of the appealed examination grade is that the student fails the examination.

If you have been absent from the study program for two consecutive years or more, you may be required by the Faculty to redo previously approved mandatory activities and/or exams.

Examination

The examination is performed as a station-based examination. Some stations are designed as OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Examination) stations, some as multiple choice stations, some as short essay stations. The tasks to perform / the questions asked on the stations will test both clinical skills and theoretical knowledge. The examination takes place at the end of the semester.
