Oral.
The exam is oral and is always conducted by both lecturers of the course in the presence of at least two students. The average duration is about 30 minutes and typically, given the experience of the teachers, the commission is in a position to verify, with unanimity of opinion, achieving the educational objectives of teaching. When these are not met, the student is invited to deepen the study and to use further explanation on the part of teachers.
