[See separate documents in VITAL for general details of Assessment Criteria, including important information on Plagiarism and Collusion and on the Departmental Policy on Feedback to Students.]
Written examinations are held at the end of each Semester for FZ61 students. Past exam papers are available. Lecturers may also be able to supply practice questions for you to attempt.
After all the written papers have been marked, the external examiners will come to the Department in early June and, together with the staff, assess the scripts from the examinations in both Semesters. Further information about various aspects of the assessment will be given during the year; you can also consult Dr Ian O'Neil (extn. 43485, chemexam@liverpool.ac.uk).
THERE ARE NO AUGUST/SEPTEMBER RESIT EXAMINATIONS FOR YEAR 3 FZ61 STUDENTS
Any student who misses an examination or part of an examination due to illness or other exceptional circumstances, or whose performance was impaired by illness or other exceptional circumstances, should make relevant information available immediately to Dr Ian O'Neil (extn. 43485, chemexam@liverpool.ac.uk). The University's procedures on "Mitigating Circumstances in Relation to Performance in Assessments and Examinations" (and the corresponding Application Form) are available elsewhere. Students must report any such circumstances no later than one week before the meeting of the Board of Examiners at which the results of the assessments concerned will be considered.
If you feel that you are not coping with any part of the year's work, you should discuss the matter as soon as possible with your Supervisor(s) and/or with Dr Yaroslav Z. Khimyak (extn. 43535, Khimyak@liverpool.ac.uk) and/or with Dr David L. Cooper (extn. 43532, dlc@liverpool.ac.uk).
