Assessment

Exam (30%, duration: 2 hours) in the summer exam period. Coursework (50%) in the MT and LT. Oral examination (20%) in the ST. Language courses map to the Common European Framework for Language Learning. This framework defines linguistic proficiency in the four language skills (reading, writing, speaking and listening) at different levels. To pass this course, students are therefore required to achieve a pass mark in each element of the assessment (continuous assessment, oral and written exams), as these test all four skills.
