Before the exam

Read the instructions below.
After doing that, go to Assignments (Uppgifter) for the Code of Conduct.

The Code of Conduct is available already, and should be read and agreed before starting the exam.

Permitted Materials

Permitted materials for the exam:
notes: up to 3 pieces of A4 paper with any writing or print that you choose
scrap paper: up to 20 pieces of A4 paper, empty at the start of the exam
writing implements: pens / pencils / eraser
calculator: plain or scientific calculator, that's not a communication device (e.g. not a mobile phone)
Papers (notes and scrap) can be taken away after the exam.

The Exam

The exam consists of three separate quizzes.

The first quiz corresponds to the subject of KS1: 'dc'. The points contributed from this subject to the final exam grade are whichever are the higher, out of the first quiz here or KS1. If you are already satisfied with the points from the KS then there's no need even to open the first quiz here.
The second quiz corresponds to the subject of KS2: 'transient'. It follows the same principle as described above for KS2, in that the higher points out of KS2 or this quiz are used towards the final grade.
The third quiz covers the 'ac' subject, on which there was not a KS. This year the exam pass is determined purely by overall points on all three quizzes together; it is possible to obtain a pass by nearly 100% on both KS or the first two quizzes here, but it seems unlikely that someone who got nearly 100% on those would be content to get a bare pass on the overall exam, so we assume that everyone will try the 'ac' quiz!

The exam will only be available from the proper starting time of 08:00.

For students with the regular (not extended) 5h writing time, final submission should be completed by 13:00 for any of the three quizzes that you want to include. The quizzes are actually open until a lot later than that, in order to allow for students with extended time. However, aim to submit it by the your correct time (it's recorded) - but don't be worried if you miss it by a few seconds.

Each quiz allows two submissions, and shows what was right. You thus get one warning to help you catch possible small slips. The final result is whichever is the better of the two tries. Note that a few questions might change a detail such as a numeric value, when re-tried: be careful to check for this.

Questions within each quiz are shown one at a time. You can move back and forward between the questions.

Recommendation: If in doubt, solve symbolically on paper then put in the numeric values at the end after you've obtained a solution. It's a good idea to keep your solutions on paper: if there's a disaster with Canvas you could quickly scan it and email to me at the end of the exam, to help prove that you had done the solutions.

Note: when asked to find something with direction, such as a voltage, current or power, it's possible that the actual direction, found when you calculate with the given numbers, is the opposite from the reference direction. In that case there should be a negative sign in the solution value. So don't worry if a marked direction appears 'wrong' or a result negative. However, note that it is important to have the correct sign in your answers.

The on-screen calculator is set to be available for each question, even if it's not expected to be needed for some questions. We are told that it sometimes can disappear, but that this can be corrected by moving to another question then back again. We are also told that refreshing the webpage should correct the calculator and not cause a problem to the quiz. This is anyway not a common problem and has not been reported in the mini-exams (kontrollskrivningar, KS). You are welcomed to bring your own calculator.

After the exam

Once any section of the exam (i.e. quiz) has been submitted you will find your score in a list over at Grades. Note that initial scores may get changed in the later manual check, if for example it turns out that there's a technical problem or a question that's misunderstood by many. [Addendum after the exam: there wasn't!] The final exam grade for Ladok might depend on the mini-exams (KS) also. It will therefore given in the course's main Canvas room, after the manual checking.
