Commission attempts

The general SIP information describes commission repeats and an additional oral part for certain final attempts in a regular degree programme. That does not confirm the procedure for nostrification applicants. The current SIP registration forms do not contain a commission-attempt selection. Confirm the procedure for your attempt with the study department and your current announcement.

Scope: SIP: general degree rules; confirm nostrification separately

MC: choices and points

MC items offer five options. Choose one best answer, or the stated two or three for Pick-N. The complete correct selection earns one point; every other selection earns zero. There is no partial credit.

KAF: write your own answers

KAF asks for short written answers without choices, with up to three answers required. Subject experts grade them manually: one point for the complete correct answer, otherwise zero. Spelling matters only when it changes the meaning.

Passing and repeating parts

The general SIP4a/SIP5a rule requires at least 60 percent overall and in each block or tertial. Published point limits may differ through rounding. Below the overall limit, repeat the entire exam; with the overall limit reached, up to two failed parts can be repeated. Nostrification applicants must follow their Bescheid and current announcement.

Scope: General SIP rule; follow your Bescheid

Read the sitting announcement

Where the calendar does not fix MC or KAF, the sitting announcement decides. March is often KAF, but this is not a confirmation. SIP announcements appear no later than three weeks before the exam and contain location and candidate number. University sign-in is required.

Deregister if you cannot attend

Deregister in Med.Campus at least three full working days before the exam, however you registered. Later withdrawal requires exceptional grounds such as illness; the certificate is due within two weeks after the exam. Unexcused absence triggers a three-month block, extended by teaching-free periods.

Repeating supplementary exams

A failed supplementary exam may be repeated four times, giving five attempts in total. The Merkblatt allows a further attempt under its conditions for the final exam of the programme. Exhausting the permitted attempts ends admission and excludes readmission.

MC practice and the KAF limit

MedPrüf MC practice uses the same all-or-nothing principle as the SIP MC guide. That does not confirm complete format, content or timing fidelity. There is no manually graded KAF exam mode here.
