== examination

Your mark is based on the result of a written examination.  As for all examinations, you have to register for an exam session in Neptun.

The exam dates and places are:

<alert info>
  ; session 1
  : Monday, 16 December 2024, 12:00–14:00, online
  ; session 2
  : Monday, 6 January 2025, 12:00–14:00, online
  ; retake session
  : Monday, 27 January 2025, 12:00–14:00, online
</alert>

The examination consists of 9 questions in total: one from each lecturer who has taught on the course. Obviously, their question will be based on the material relevant to their part of the course – their lectures and reading material.

The paper is split into 3 sections of three questions each<!-- (Kiss, Törkenczy and Szigetvári; den Dikken, Szécsényi and Burukina; and Newson, den Dikken and Starčević).--> You will have to answer one question from each section — i.e. a total of three questions. You will have two hours to complete the exam.

The questions are all ‘essay’ type — i.e. **not** multiple choice. As you have two hours to write three answers, we are obviously not expecting the kind of essays that you would produce at home. You should strive to include in your answer the most relevant information and do not pad it out with irrelevant discussion or wordy introductions: be brief but to the point. However, do write legibly and understandably — ‘note format’ may be brief, but it is often difficult to decipher by anyone other than the author and if markers cannot understand what you have written, they will not be able to give you the marks you may deserve.
