  Under no circumstances additional or extra exam dates will be programmed.
- Exam rules and procedures
  
  The exam will be given in written form. Each exam will consist in a series of (e.g. 2) numerical exercises to be solved by the candidate. The exercises will be centered on lesson topics. The duration of the exam is 90 minutes.
  
  During the exam the candidates will not be allowed to consult any material (books, notes, ...). The only allowed tool is a scientific calculator.
  
  The exam vote will be determined considering the numerical correctness of the results, but also the procedures applied to derive them. In general, a correct procedure with no numerical result or a minor calculation error is worth 60% of the exercise value. On the contrary, utterly wrong results deriving from erroneous procedures yield a negative score.
