B. Exam Format, content, and Outcome

Degree courses include a mandatory and non-selective test for the assessment of initial knowledge aimed at the possible assignment of Additional Learning Requirements.

Failure to take the test will be considered a failing result and will automatically lead to the assignment of OFA.

Format of the Exam

The test is conducted online via a dedicated platform. The time allotted for completing the test is 120 minutes. Instructions for accessing the platform will be promptly published on the Student Portal.
The test consists of 40 questions, divided as follows:

  • Basic Mathematics: 8 questions
  • Physics: 7 questions
  • Chemistry: 5 questions
  • Natural Sciences: 10 questions
  • Logic: 5 questions
  • Reading Comprehension: 5 questions

The required knowledge corresponds to the Italian upper secondary school curriculum (ministerial programs).

Exam Outcome

The test result is determined by assigning the following scores:

  • Correct answer: 1
  • Wrong or unanswered question: 0

Additional Learning Requirements (OFA)

The assignment of OFA will occur if the score of the exam is considered insufficient, less than:

  • Basic Mathematics 10 scores

Students will be assigned Additional Learning Requirements (OFA) if they score below the following thresholds:

  • Basic Mathematics: fewer than 4 points
  • Physics: fewer than 3 points
  • Chemistry: fewer than 2 points

The OFAs can be fulfilled within the first year by:

  • Attending mandatory remedial courses in Mathematics 0, Chemistry 0, and Physics 0 and passing an assessment test at the end of each course;
  • Passing midterm tests within the relevant basic courses.

Details regarding schedules and procedures for the remedial courses will be published on the Department’s website:
Link identifier #identifier__78137-10https://scienze.uniroma3.it/didattica/obblighi-formativi-aggiuntivi/

Accepted Alternative Tests

Also accepted admission tests taken at other degree programs at Roma Tre or other universities:

CISIA tests: TOLC-I, TOLC-S and TOLC-B from January 1, 2025, including TOLC@home

To avoid OFA at least half of the questions must be answered correctly in:

Mathematics or Basic Mathematics (TOLC-B, S or I)

Chemistry and Physics (TOLC-B)

OFA may be fulfilled by attending mandatory Mathematics 0, Chemistry 0, and Physics 0 courses and passing the final test or by passing midterm tests in basic courses.

You must register for online services (see Article 1), and enrollment must be completed by the deadlines in Article 4.

Enrollment is allowed even without having taken the entrance test, with the assignment of OFA.
