The Final Exam will be available here in Canvas from Friday 2 June 18.00, with deadline Monday 5 June 23.59.

You will have 180 minutes in total to complete the exam, but you can do them separately during the time the exam is open.

The exam will consist of two parts:
1. a quiz with multiple choice questions covering the content from the whole course. You have 60 minutes for this part. Once you have started the test, you cannot take a break until it's done.

This quiz takes a random sample of questions from a question bank, covering all the chapters we have read in Vellupilai. Everyone will get a different selection of questions. Some of the questions come from module 1 and 2, and you might recognize them. The questions from module 3 are new.

The exam will consist of 20 multiple choice questions for 5 points each, totaling 100 points. You have to pick the correct answer among a number of suggested answers, or you have to answer if a statement is true or false.

2. a test with 3 open questions that require you to write your own answers, totaling 60 points. These questions will also cover the whole course.

The questions relate to issues discussed in Vellupilai, but also to the other literature that we have read in this course. Make sure you have read ALL the required literature. You are allowed to use the literature during the exam and cite from it. However, you will need to have read everything to know where to find the information you want to refer to, because time is short. You can make use of language examples that you have written about during the linguistic questions of this course, but you are NOT required to look for new sources during the test. Always give the source of the example! Make sure you answer the question, and only the question.

You are not allowed to collaborate during the exam. This means that I expect the answers to these questions to be different for every student. NO googling, and NO copy + paste! The answers will be automatically checked for plagiarism.

You have 120 minutes for this part. Once you have started the test, you cannot take a break until it's done.

If necessary, there will be a retake, i.e. a second possibility to take the exam.

75 % is enough to pass.

To get Pass with distinction (VG) on this course you need to have passed the module 1 and 2 tests, and have 90% or more on the final test.
