How do I know if I am ready for an exam?

The final grade does not get saved in your records and calculated in your final grade. You can use this dummy exam to get an impression of the format as well as the contents of the subject exam. This can help you evaluate if you are ready to take the exam.

How do the practical/oral exams work?

The examiner awards points for each question. The student must receive a minimum of 50% of the total possible points in order to successfully pass the exam.
