In other cases, students must otherwise demonstrate the acquired competencies. A student can participate in a demonstration exam for the module once and this demonstration is graded using the same criteria as for the module (on the scale 1 - 5, or fail). The student is expected to demonstrate that s/he has a command of the competencies described in the module handbook.
