- The examination of both the Psychometrics modules and the Theories and techniques of the tests is carried out in a single test. This consists of a written test (oral is optional and at the discretion of the teacher).
The written test consists of 31 multiple choice questions. Each correct question corresponds to one point. It is necessary to obtain a minimum score of 18 to pass the test.
In order to be able to take the written exam it is necessary to register through the registration system of the On Line (SOL) Secretariat Services within 4 working days from the date of the exam (for example, on Monday the registrations are closed for the exams that are on Friday). We recommend that you cancel yourself if you do not intend to introduce yourself again.
The dates of the written test are shown in the exam calendar published on the site of the FISSUF Department and on SOL.
