III Year Lettorato Inglese – Full Exam (January 24, 2019)

Dear students:

As you know, in this exam session, students with surnames in the range

Iacuzzo–Pasciucco are with me.

Until now I have marked all papers for the students who indicated they are laureandi. 

I am continuing to mark the rest of the exams, and as previously agreed, I'll post the rest of the results on this blog by Monday, February 4 (and hopefully even sooner).

Oral exams for all students (laureandi e non) will be on Tuesday, February 5, starting at 11:00am in stanza 203 (Sala di anglistica e francesistica), sede Marco Polo. If you pass the written exam but are unable to be present for the oral on the 5^th, you may write to me to request another appointment.

Among the laureandi, the following students only have passed and are therefore admitted to the oral exam:

Incalcaterra, Roberta

La Rocca, Viviana

Lukolic, Lea

All other laureandi in the range Iacuzzo–Pasciucco unfortunately did not pass the written exam.

Dear Students

As you know, in the winter exam session, students with surnames in the range 

Selvaggi – Zhang are with me (Peterson-More).

Of those students, the following have passed the written exam and are therefore admitted to the oral on Tuesday, February 5, from 10:00 to 11:00 am at sede Marco Polo:

Viti, Alessandra                     

           

+ VISIONE COMPITI for those students who did not pass on February 7, 11:00-12:00.
All students who did not pass the written exam are encouraged to come and see your written exam paper (visionare il compito scritto) on Thursday, February 7, from 11:00 to 12:00. If you intend to see your written exam, please email me by Wednesday, February 6, to confirm your presence.

If any of you need or want to reschedule your exam for another day, you may email me to request a separate appointment. Please email me also if you have any questions about the oral exam, or the book you have chosen:

nathanial.peterson-more@uniroma1.it

All other students in the range Selvaggi – Zhang unfortunately did not pass the written exam. If you are one of those students, I strongly encourage you to come see your exam paper (visionare il compito), on another date still to be determined (but definitely in February). I will post that information here in the coming days.

I Year & II Lettorato Inglese (frequentanti Peterson-More)


Dear students,

I know that many of you are anxious to see the results of your first semester class tests (esoneri). I have not forgotten about you and have been marking your tests. Please understand that marking tests and exams takes a lot of time, especially because there are so many of them (more than 100 esoneri for my courses), and because I am very careful in order to ensure accuracy. Each year I spend literally hundreds of hours (in 2017-2018 I spent more than 300 hours) on tests and exams – much more time than teaching in the classroom. Most of that time on tests/exams comes in the winter (December-February) and spring (May-June) sessions. This is not fun.

I will post your results on this blog when I have finished correcting all tests for your course, as I always do. That will be sometime in February, hopefully around the middle of the month. In any case it will be before lessons begin again in the second semester. I am sorry this takes so long and appreciate your patience.

Right now I want to make a few things very clear:

(1) I gave you all the opportunity to come to an extra lesson session, before the holidays, in which we went over (i.e. talked about) the answers to the esonero. The purpose of this extra meeting was to give you some instant feedback, so you would have an idea of your performance on the test. Many of you (in fact most of you in my lettorato 1 course) did not come to this session. That was unfortunate: you missed an opportunity. (I even saw some of you were leaving the university while I was arriving that day).

(2) This is a first semester test; it is NOT a Full Exam. If you pass the first semester test, it does not give you the right to do the oral exam. To be eligible for the oral exam you must also pass the second semester test in May or the Full Exam in June.

If you fail the first semester test, you cannot do the second esonero in May, but you can still do the Full Exam in June.

The first semester test is essentially a check on your progress halfway through the course.

Independent of how well or how poorly you did on the first semester test you must continue studying and practicing your English in order to improve. So keep studying and keep reading in English now!

(3) Besides our first semester tests, there were Full Exams in December 2018 and January 2019. I did exams for lettorato 1 and lettorato 3. The Full Exams in the winter session must always take priority over esoneri: the students who pass the written part of the Full Exam are supposed to do the oral exam shortly afterwards in the same exam session. Some of these students need to graduate in March and must complete all exams by February.

Thank you for your patience. See you all soon!
