Guidelines during examinations

Examination Regulation

Check Examination Regulation here.

Arriving too late

You will not be allowed to participate in the examination if you arrive more than half an hour late. The invigilator(s) may refuse you to sit in the examination if you do not have a valid reason for showing up late.

This could be found in article 11 of the Examination Regulation.

 

 

Law books

Prohibited:

  • Adding notes on tabs or in legislations or other permitted sources: words, numbers, article numbers, etc.
  • Placing arrows

Permitted:

  • Highlighting
  • Underlining
  • Use of coloured tabs (if blank)

These rules are used to prevent fraud. Having a text with annotations at your disposal during the examination will be considered fraud as arranged for in article 15 Examination Regulation.

Dictionaries

In principle, you are not allowed to use dictionaries during examinations.

Mobile phones

Your mobile phones are not allowed to be switched on and/or be available during the examinations. The invigilator can check that you do not have your mobile phone switched on or available. An invigilator is also allowed to (temporarily) confiscate similar devices.
