Over time a number of questions have been raised regarding what students can and cannot have with them during the Written Qualifying and Oral Exams. The following are provided as guidelines. This information will be included in the 2009 Student Handbook.
When completing the Written Qualifying Exam, the student will be allowed to have a copy of the non annotated reading list that has been approved by their supervisory committee as well as food and drink and a wrist watch or clock.
Students are not allowed to bring:
• Computer disks
• Jump Drives, thumb drives, etc.
• Other External Storage Devices
• Books
• Notes
• Cell Phones (with or without internet capability)
• Pager
• Palm Pilots or other such devices
At the time of the Oral Qualifying Examination the student will be able to have access to the following:
• A copy of written Qualifying Exam questions and answers
• A copy of the non annotated reading list that has been approved by their committee and used in preparing for the qualifying exam (references only; no abstracts).
• Up to five (5) type written pages of notes, containing the student’s own evaluation of and reflections on their qualifying exam performance (not to include any information resulting from discussions with any person regarding the student’s written exam). A copy of these notes will be provided to the committee chair prior to the beginning of the oral exam.
