Course grade

To pass the course, you need to pass the mini-project, the peer-review assignment, the lab (only for 1RT003) and the exam. The course grade will then be the grade you got on the exam.

Demo exam

This is the first year the course ends with a written exam (previous years it was an oral exam). We have therefore made a demo exam available so you can familiarize yourself with the format.

It is strongly recommended that you look at the demo exam before the real exam to familiarize yourself with the graphical interface for doing the programming assignments and how to copy code and the requested plots into the exam. If you have any questions about the procedure and format, please identify them before the exam. You can ask them here. The proportion of assignments related to the different parts of the course might differ as well as the proportion of question types, such as programming, pen and paper, free-text and automatically corrected assignments.

Old exams


Re-exam

Re-exams will be offered during the re-exam periods in December and August.

PhD-students

PhD students enrolled in FNT0092 and FNT0204 will take the same exam as 1RT705 and 1RT003, respectively. FNT0092 and FNT0204 are only graded with U/G. To get grade G on the course, grade 4 on the exam is required for PhD students.

PhD students register to the exam by sending an email to it-kansli@it.uu.se including personal number and the course code of the exam (1RT705 if you are resisted on the 5hp version or 1RT003 if you are resisted on the 7.5hp version). This should also be done no later than 12 days before the exam.
