Spanish 1

The exam consists of a language level assessment (oral and written) and an oral interview on the course contents. The linguistic assessment (written part) and the oral parts (course and exercises) take place on different days and can be taken in free sequence. In any case, it is advisable to take the written linguistic assessment first and then the course interview (if you choose the opposite sequence, it is advisable to notify the teacher to receive instructions relating to the verbalization of the grade).

All parts of the exam are taken entirely in Spanish.

The written language assessment test takes place only in three annual sessions (May, September and January) and evaluates the written skills related to the exercises, so it is entirely in Spanish. The test lasts a maximum of 3 hours and the use of dictionaries is not allowed. It consists of two parts: (1) Lexical-grammatical test and (2) written expression test (composition) of 150 words, of which grammatical correctness and lexical variety are assessed. The grade of the written test is the mathematical average of the grade of the two parties, which must both be sufficient. The grade is out of thirty and the student has the right to refuse it. The pass mark is 18/30. The results are usually available within ten days of writing and are published on the Ariel platform of the course. The tests are corrected in full and the student has a minimum of two receptions available to view the correction and for a possible self-evaluation comment. The written assessment test is valid for one year, from session to session (included).

The oral linguistic assessment test is in the regular exam sessions and coincides with the interview of the monographic course. The oral assessment evaluates the oral communication skills related to the exercises in a conversation in Spanish lasting about 10 minutes on the topics of the manual, on a paper and any readings required by the exam program. This test is preparatory to the interview of the monographic course, if it is not passed the student will not be able to access the interview and will have to resume another session for both oral parts. In any case, the oral assessment and the interview of the monographic course must be passed in the same session. The evaluation is in thirties, the note is included in the interview on the contents of the course and the student has the right to reject it. The use of dictionaries is not allowed.
The oral interview on the contents of the course is in the regular exam sessions and takes place in Spanish. It lasts about 20 minutes and includes questions asked by the teacher aimed at verifying the knowledge of the texts studied and the accuracy in the use of specific terminology, as well as the capacity for critical and personal reflection on the proposed topics. The grade is thirties and the student has the right to refuse it. The pass mark is 18/30. The interview on the course (having previously passed the oral examination) is valid for one year, from session to session (included). If the written assessment has already been passed, with the interview the exam is completed and the overall mark is recorded, given by the mathematical average between the written assessment test and the course interview, both of which must be sufficient. If the written exam has not yet been passed, the verbalization will take place after passing the written exam (the student will have to register and present herself to a subsequent oral exam for the verbalization only) and after the oral exam the student will receive a cancellation report indicating " rejected".

Please note that the Spanish Language 2 exam cannot be recorded as long as the Spanish Language 1 and Spanish / Hispanic American Literature 1 exams are not recorded.
