SHORT COURSE (From previous specification)
(PDF), Last Updated: 03 July 2007
Students of the full course must complete two written examinations, one for each of the units they study. Each exam lasts 1 hour 30 minutes and is worth 50 percent of the final award.
The scheme of assessment is unitised, and therefore flexible. The following
possibilities are available:
- Students take both assessment units at the end of one year of study.
- Students take both assessment units at the end of two years of study.
- Students take one assessment unit at the end of one year of study and the other at the end of a second year.
Students can take assessment units in any order.
Students of the short course must complete one written exam on the unit they have studied. The exam lasts 1 hour 30 minutes and is worth 100 percent of the final award.
We set and mark all the exams. They are available in summer only.
