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 exam will be paper-based. The time assigned for completing the test is 150 minutes and consists of 40 questions divided as follows:
- Basic Mathematics: 10 questions
- Physics: 10 questions
- Chemistry: 10 questions
- Logic : 5 questions
- Reading comprehension: 5 questions
The required knowledge level corresponds to the official Italian curriculum of High School (Scientific High School).
The exam takes place in person in the Department of Science, Lungotevere Dante 376, Rome starting at 9:00 A.M.
Exam Outcome
The test result is determined by assigning the following scores:
- Correct answer: 2
- Unanswered question: 0
- Wrong answer: -0,5
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
- Physics 10 scores
- Chemistry 10 scores
Students who do not reach the minimum required scores will be required to attend remedial zero-credit courses (Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics). These courses must be attended either in person or online during the first year of the degree program.
Accepted Alternative Tests
Accepted TOLC-S, TOLC-B, and TOLC-I taken 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-S, TOLC-B e TOLC-I)
- at least half of the questions must be answered correctly in Chemistry (TOLC-S “Basic Sciences” module or TOLC-I “Science” module)
- at least half of the questions must be answered correctly in Physics (TOLC-S or TOLC-I “Science” module
Enrollment is permitted even without taking the entrance test, with OFA assigned accordingly.
