You have one week to upload your solutions to Olat, the deadline will be Fridays at 5 p.m.. Please upload your solutions as only one PDF-file to Olat - please make sure that it is well readable and (both of) your name(s) is stated. Bare in mind that every student must submit a solution, eventhough when working in pairs.
To be able to participate in the exam, you need to fulfill the following criteria (Klausurzulassung): i) Have at least 50% of the total points from all exercise sheets, ii) present your solutions at least twice in the tutorial, and iii) not miss your tutorial more than two times.
The first tutorial (week of the 23 October, 2023) will feature a non-graded math test to self-check your knowledge on important mathematical concepts. Its solution will be discussed in the following week.
Examination (Prüfungsleistung)
-
The final graded exam (to be graded!) will be written and takes 90 minutes. The first date is the 15 February, 2024, and the second date will be 25 February, 2024, both at 10.15 to 11.45 a.m.. You will have the opportunity to see your pre-graded exam the day after you have written it, in both cases at 9.15 - 10.45 a.m. in Phys _0.111 (Physics Building).
Please make sure to bring your Student ID Card (will be checked during the exam)! You are allowed to write and bring one DIN A4 page (front and back) with helpfull formulas etc.. Electronic devices are to be turned off during the exam.
There will be a mock exam (Probeklausur) on Friday, 13 January, 2024, during the lecture. Its solution will be discussed in the tutorial.
