Examinations are an integral part of every degree programme and are often decisive for success in a course. However, exams often differ significantly depending on the subject area (e.g. exams in German Literature or Mechanical Engineering), type of course (e.g. in a seminar or a lecture) and time of study (introductory course or specialisation module). In this workshop you will therefore learn, among other things
- how to find out what you are likely to face in an exam (linguistically and subject-wise),
- how you can prepare for an exam during the semester and
- how you can prevent exam stress or anxiety and start the exam phase with confidence.
Using concrete examples, this workshop will provide you with an overview of typical exam types at German universities and the types of texts and writing assignments they contain. At the same time, you will practise correctly assessing your own strengths and weaknesses in terms of self-management and time management, learning strategies, linguistic and subject-specific skills and knowledge of the content to be learnt and draw conclusions for successful preparation.
