The change of the Economic Psychology Exam
The change of the ordinal exam in Economic Psychology on Aarhus University, due to the COVID-restrictions, from an 5 hour on-site written exam to an virtual oral exam extended over a week, has major impacts on the students preperation schedule in the preperation period. Not only is the announcment only 3 weeks before the exam, but the ordinal (original) exam was an 5 hour on site exam divided in two; one multiple-choise exam without aid, and one case-exam with aid, but the study board at Aarhus University also thinks that a 30 min. oral exam withoud any aid - which was originally made for less than 10 students - is the right way to pass +60 students through the exam period. The reason for that is the no-aid piece of the ordinal exam; it is, according to them, impossible to pull through in a take-home exam. The COVID-situation is not a new thing, and Aarhus University has had plenty of time to create an exam that could substitute that part, or at least create something that would be possible to function in a take-home exam. Three weeks notice is not enough for us students, who need to change our preperation schedule totaly. Besides, the new examination time collides with another exam, which means we eventually can risk to be examined the same day in two different courses. They will do their best for this not to happen, but they cannot promise anything. This signature collection is needed to make Aarhus University aware, that their easy-way-out decision regarding the Economic Psychology exam has made 60+ students more stressed out and that they need to revise their decision, and make a new exam which is equivalent to the ordinal.
