Please note that to pass the exam for Module II, it is strictly necessary to have passed the exam for Module I. The final grade is the average of the grade given in the Module I exam and that in the Module II exam and will be the only one to be transferred to the student's career and made visible to the students as a grade for Istituzioni di Diritto privato, equal to 18 CFU. ASSESSMENT METHODS The exam aims to verify the degree of specific competence acquired by the student on the topics covered in the program. In particular, the ability to understand the problem, to deal with it in a complete, logically correct, well-argued and with excellent linguistic and expressive mastery, not only technical legal, will be assessed. The purpose of the exam is not only to ascertain and evaluate the (although essential) possession of notions but also the ability to address problems and reason systematically, knowing rules and qualifying facts.
