Examinations

Registering for Examinations in October

Nearly all students sitting University examinations will need to enrol for their exams through their self-service CamSIS account. Entries should only be made after consultation with your Director of Studies about your paper choices.

Enrolment falls into two categories 

For all students who have no choice in their papers, the enrolment window will open from 1st October and close on 22nd October.  Please click for a list of non-optional examinations

For those students who do have a choice of papers the exam enrolment window will be open from 1st October until 8th November.  Please click here for a list of optional examinations

Please note candidates for Part III Physics should only enter their Major Topic choices. The enrolment window will reopen in the Lent Term in order for Part III Physics to accept their Minor Topic choices, the Research Project, the General Physics Paper and the Long Vacation project if you have done it.  There is also one Major Topic 1/QFT (borrowed from Maths Part III)

Exam Verification Forms (EVF's)

In order for students to sit an exam it is necessary for them to verify their exam enrolments online via CamSIS. The tutorial office will send students an email at the relevant time of year to remind them to do this. Please note that this new system replaces the paper based system that some students may already be used to.

To verify your exam enrolment:

  1. Log in to your CamSIS self-service account
  2. You should see a notice at the top of the page that reads "you have exam enrolments to verify". Alternatively click on the link in the examinations table that reads "verify examination enrolment".
  3. On the page that appears, please click on the drop down menu in the Action column and select "verify enrolment" unless you require a change to be made to your exams in which case select "request change".
  4. Please then click save otherwise your choice will be lost!
  5. If you select "verify enrolment" a page will appear asking you to confirm your choice. If you are happy with the choice you have made, click yes to confirm it. This will then take you to a page that shows you have successfully verified your exam enrolment.
  6. If you selected "request change" a page will appear asking you to confirm your choice. If you are happy with the choice you have made, click yes to confirm it. This will then take you to a page that shows you have requested a change to the exams you have been registered to sit.
  7. Choosing "request change" DOES NOT automatically change the exam you will sit and you MUST visit the tutorial office to arrange to have your name added to the correct examination.

Should you have any corrections to make to examination entries after the enrolment deadline please contact the Tutorial Office directly.

If you have any questions about the EVF system on CamSIS or any further questions about examinations, please contact Lesley Lambert in the tutorial office.
