WHAT IS IT?
The basic knowledge test consists of four pages/sections: Mathematics, Biology, Physics and Chemistry.
Each section contains 10 multiple-choice questions on the corresponding subject.
In order to pass the test, it is necessary to correctly answer at least 4 questions in Mathematics, 7 questions in Biology, 6 questions in Physics and 6 questions in Chemistry, otherwise the student will be given an OFA in the subject in which he/she did not achieve the minimum score.
*** ATTENTION: *** The test is compulsory for all first-year students: students who do not take the test in the manner described on this page will be automatically assigned an OFA for each of the four subjects.
WHEN DOES THE TEST TAKES PLACE?
Dates, shifts and times will be communicated later.
To take the test, you need to reserve your place on the dedicated page of the Elly portal.
The procedure for booking the test is described in the following GUIDE
HOW IS IT CARRIED OUT?
The test will take place in person at the computer room "E" of the "Aule delle scienze" complex, at the University Campus.
The duration of the test (only one attempt available) is 45 minutes, during which time it can be completed and submitted at any time. During the test, it is possible to change the answers already given within a page/section or to cancel them by clicking on the 'ANNULLA LA SCELTA' (CANCEL YOUR CHOICE) text that will appear at the bottom of each question, but if you move on to the next section, the answers given in the previous one will be saved and can no longer be changed. After the 45 minutes have elapsed, the test will end automatically, and your score will still be recorded.
Please note that to sign up to take the test, you must only use your University mail credentials, if they have already been assigned to you (username: name.surname@studenti.unipr.it and relative password, if already assigned, or the numeric credentials of the University obtained during registration in the ESSE3 information system, for example: 10178451), and that the use of calculators, online search engines or other web (smartphone, smartwatch) or paper-based aids such as textbooks or manuals is not permitted.
The individual test result will not be public: it will only be visible to the student and communicated confidentially to the subject instructors involved.
The methods of carrying out the test are illustrated in the following GUIDE
THE DAY OF TEST
To be admitted to the test, the student must necessarily bring:
