Exams dates / Reminders

Because of the bank holidays ("jours fériés"), there will only be 10 class sessions this second semester.

First main exam (around 80 minutes): around week 5-6: the exam will cover everything including the last class session before the exam.

Reminders:

1/ First short vocab test: around week 4-5

2/ Second main exam (40% of the semester grade): April 10

3/ Second short vocab test: April 24

4/ Should you miss one of these exams, there will be no catch-up session whatsoever, even if you have a valid and sincere justification.

5/ Attendance is compulsory: unlike in L2 and in M1, there is no "contrôle final" in L3 because the English course is optional in L3. Should the students be absent 3 times (ie 2 + 1) without providing a valid and sincere justification, their semester grade will be impacted by - 30% (example: if a student's semester grade is 10/20 and is absent 3 times without justification, their grade will be: 10 x (-30%) = 07/20.

Please do arrive on time if not in advance!

ATTENDANCE RULES

Dear students, 

Attendance is compulsory: unlike in L2 and in M1, there is no "contrôle final" in L3 because the English course is optional in L3. Should the students be absent 3 times (ie 2 + 1) without providing a valid and sincere justification, their semester grade will be impacted by - 30% (example: if a student's semester grade is 10/20 and is absent 3 times without justification, their grade will be: 10 x (-30%) = 07/20.

If you do not have a valid and sincere justification for your possible absence for the short tests and  short quizzes that will also take place during the semester, you will get a zero mark.  

There will be no catch-up session whatsoever if you miss the first and/or the second main exam.

Best regards, 

MN
