Student Exam & Grading Guide 2018-2019

EXAMINATION INFORMATION

Final Examinations

Final examinations may be essay only, multiple choice only, or a combination of essay and multiple choice. Final examinations are generally three hours or less, except for Summer Tax LLM examinations which are four hours in duration. Students will be provided with a separate unique exam number for the final examination that is different than the exam number used for the midterm examination ( My Suffolk > Web Advisor > Law Exam Information > My Examination Numbers > Term > 18/FL ).

Multiple Choice Examinations

Examinations may be entirely multiple choice or have a multiple choice component. The examination will include a scantron for answering multiple choice questions (see example below). Students must fill out their examination number and a special code (if applicable). Examinations will either ask questions with a specific answer (A, B, C, D or E) or will ask questions with a True or False answer (A= True, B= False). Please be careful when filling in the circles on scantron sheets for both your exam number and your answers. Double check that you are responding to the corresponding question for the right number/letter on the scantron (question 1 is response 1 on the scantron). If you are changing an answer, make sure that you erase the wrong response as completely as possible. Two responses for a question are considered an incorrect response.
