The Examiners advise that students should not assume that the questions in each of the four question papers will be in the same order each year for those options which are divided into two sections.
Each paper will consist of four sections, one drawn from each option.
In two of the papers, two 90 minute answers will be required, one answer from each of the two sections corresponding to your chosen options. There will be a choice of three questions in each option. In the other two papers four 45 minute answers will be required, two from each of the two chosen options. Here, a choice of four questions will be offered in each option.
Two practical/data handling examinations (15% of total mark).
Each exam will last for 2.5 hours. It will consist of specimens, photographs and data to identify or comment upon together with brief questions and/or manipulative procedures based on these. The material will be based on practicals, demonstrations, example classes or lectures.
The Examiners require that each candidate submit two copies of a written report of his/her research project to the Department of Pathology Teaching Office no later than 12 noon on Friday 15 March 2019.
It is desirable for project experimental work to be finished early in the Lent Term. This will allow you sufficient time for writing up the work and enable you to use the Easter Vacation to recuperate and prepare for the examinations.
A viva voce examination may be used by the Examiners to help in preparing the final class list if the candidate is on the borderline between classes. Therefore, candidates may be required to attend for a viva voce examination after completion of the practical examination. Candidates should keep the Monday immediately following the practical examination free in case they are called for a viva.
