How are examination results registered?
At the end of the course, one overall mark must be registered for each student in the examination protocol.
If it necessary to ”keep an account” of the students’ results in continuous assessments, etc, a list of registered students may be obtained from Study and Students' Affairs.
The examination protocols are ready for collection before the end of week seven of the block.
Examination protocols of students resitting exams will be ready no later than on Thursday of the week before the interim week.
Examination protocols must be collected from Study and Students' Affairs by a member of staff from the department.
Results are registered either as marks according to the 7-point scale or as passed/failed. The 7-point scale consists of the following marks: -3, 00, 02, 4, 7, 10, 12. Please be aware to state the marks 00 and 02 instead of 0 and 2 as this prevents any altering of the marks into 10 and 12. It appears from the course description which scale is to be used.
Students who fail to turn up and students absent due to illness are registered with “U”. Students who hand in blank papers should be registered with “-3” or “I”, respectively.
”I” corresponds to the mark ”failed” (in Danish: ikke bestået).
Only students registered in the examination protocol may be examined. It is not an acceptable solution to add students to the list “by hand” unless agreed with Study and Students’ Affairs in the actual case.
The deadline for submitting exam results is three weeks after the end of the block (please also see under “deadlines")
It is important that the deadline is observed as it has been fixed on the basis of the principle that students who have failed should have a reasonable period of time to decide whether they want to resit the exam.
The submission of exam results must take place in a secure way. This means that they may be handed over to a member of staff at Study and Students’ Affairs by a member of the department’s staff (never by a student) or that they may be sent by internal or external mail.
If they are sent by mail, the department must see to it that the results are placed in an envelope that is stamped CONFIDENTIAL and sent to the offices of Study and Students' Affairs. Study and Students’ Affairs must not be in any doubt whatsoever whether the envelope has been opened.
This can be ensured by sealing the envelope or writing a signature across the envelope's closure.
