Exam registration, exam period
Practical information for the exam period of 2022/23/2

- This semester the exams are performed with presence.
*The exams of the Exam period are for getting grades for the lecture type (HUN: kollokvium) subjects.
Practical classes are graded on the basis of the seminar performance (seminars end in the study period).
Neptun guides for registration
Please note the following
- Based on their performance throughout the semester, the instructor may offer the Student a grade (offered grade=Megajánlott jegy). The offered grades can be accepted/rejected in Neptun until the 3rd week of the Exam period. Student can only accept an offered grade if they have not registered for an exam. (Further info: Academic Regulations Section 68/B)
- Registration for exams grading the lectures is obligatory. Without a valid registration neither the exam, nor the course can be completed (except for the case above). Recording the grade in Neptun is possible only with a valid exam date.
- You can register for or deregister from an exam up to 24 hours before the day of the exam.
- Within an exam period, you can have a maximum of 2 attempts to complete a particular exam.
- You can register for the exam only if the limit of students is not full.
- If you cannot participate in an exam you have registered for, you should drop the exam up to 24 hours before the exam date, or give/send a certificate of the reason of your absence to the examiner or to the department of studies putting also the Department of International Affairs to copy. This way, it can be a ‘justified absence’ from the exam. If you do not send the certificate, this missed exam attempt will count towards the attempts for that particular exam. Note that ‘justified absence’ from exam has to be ‘ticked’ in Neptun by your instructor/coordinator before you register for the next date.
- If you miss an exam date without a certificate or dropping the exam, you will have a ‘not appeared’ status which has a fine of 3500HUF/missed exam.
- Please be aware: the latest exam date is always the retake (3rd or further date). The retake cannot be your first exam date! If you take an earlier date, but drop it, you will not be able to take the retake date either. The retake date is only available if you have received a grade during the exam period: either Fail or any other you want to change. A failed exam can be re-attempted for every exam. The maximum number of attempts at a non-failed exam (= a grade better than a fail/1) is one (1) for the entire semester (for an exam of your choice).
- If you do not fail an exam, but you are not satisfied with the grade, you can take the given exam again during the Exam period. However, take into consideration that always the 2nd grade is valid. If it is worse than the 1st, you cannot take the exam anymore, you will receive the worse grade.
- Have your ID card/student card/passport/residence permit with you at the exam, because the examiner can ask for identification before starting the exam.
