The oral exam consists of two sections, and you must achieve a passing grade in both sections to pass the exam. The sections of the exam in chronological order are:
1) A 6 to 7 minute presentation in a business/professional/organizational context which occupies one third of the examination time and counts for one third of the overall grade.
2) A 12-13 minute 'negotiations' discussion, which, occupying two thirds of the available examination time, counts for two thirds of the overall grade.
The exam can be taken individually or in groups of two persons. For groups, the time allocated to each section is doubled. Grades will be given individually.
