The final exam consist of four parts: 1. Written test (entrance test), containing 20 questions; questions are either multiple choice, single correct or fill-in ones. Time limit 20 min. 2. ECG test, routine part of exam, students are required to describe one ECG curve. Time limit 10 min. 3. Lab examination. One question from the lab practicals. Time limit for preparation 15 min. 4. Theory examination. Three questions (triplet), one of them is from neurophysiology. Time limit for preparation 20 min.
Evaluation of exam: The final exam takes part during the summer semester exam period. Exam is successfully passed upon successful passing of all four parts of exam. Successful passing of the third term exam (second correction term) does not require successful passing of the written test. Each exam term consists of all four parts.
Examination requires: 1. Valid SIS exam registration for particular term detailed dates for examination terms in SS (summer semester) will be announced on SIS and on our webpage: one preterm during the 15. week four terms in regular exam period one term during vacations two term in September, the last one not later than September 10 2. Physiology credits signed for winter and summer semesters 3. Credit book
Excuse from the exam: Students are obliged to claim the exam excuse ahead of the particular exam term, otherwise you exam term is spent (lost). Receiving your apology after the respective exam term requires reasonable and documented justification in order to not lose the term.
