In §22a of the General Examination Regulations (APB) of the TU Darmstadt (opens in new tab), it is specified which regulations exist with regard to examination performances in the answer-choice procedure (AWV). This means, for example, multiple-choice, single-choice, and matching questions.
The main excerpts from the regulations are:
- The tasks in the answer-choice procedure should not exceed the share of 50% of the total number of points of the examination, unless there is an approval of the departmental council.
- For each task, the number of correct answers per task must be specified in the task description.
As soon as more than one correct answer is provided, the number must be checked manually, as this is not automated by EvaExam. To avoid this, the consistent use of single choice questions is recommended. - Partial points must be awarded for each correct answer ticked.
- A point deduction for wrong answers (negative points) is not permitted.
