Last minute exam tip (open book ...)

  • Remember: justification is the main part. You cannot just fill in the conclusion.
  • Remember that you are allowed to bring all books, notes, and other written or printed matter with you, and pocket calculators too. (Batteries are your responsibility!)
    • But you are not permitted to submit anything readymade.
      You must write everything on the papers handed out. (And not on the questions sheet!)
  • The exam is not the right time to save paper - you would want to write so clearly and legibly that we can read what you are doing (which is necessary to get credit).
    • Want to delete something? Strike it out - you cannot use an eraser! You are supposed to use ink (blue or black).
      For students new at UiO: it is "carbon paper" that produces two blueprints in addition to the top layer. Two handed in, one retained by you. (And so erasing would make lots of illegible mess.)

And if you think "illegible mess" is the way to get away with writing something you don't know: too old trick. Seen it before, does not impress.
