Check Special Epoch exam regulation here: https://tecnico.ulisboa.pt/en/education/study-at-tecnico/academic-information/evaluation/

For the course Optimization and Algorithms, the rules for the Special Epoch exam are as follows: 

a) you must bring an identification card with your name and photo (if you have an IST card, bring it);

b) the final grade in this course will be exactly the grade of the Special Season exam (so, neither the quiz grade nor the project grade will count for the final grade);

c) the duration of the exam is 2h00m;

d) this is a fully closed-book quiz; 

e) you can bring to the exam only scratch sheets of paper, but which should be completely blank at the beginning (nothing should be written on them before you start the exam);

f) no electronic calculators (of any kind) are allowed;

g) there are 3 multiple-choice questions and 3 open-response questions;

h) you mark your answers to the multiple-choice questions in a box at the top of page 1.  There is no negative score for marking an incorrect choice (an incorrect choice in a problem means zero points as the score on that problem);

i) you write your answers to the open-response questions directly in the pages where the open-response questions are printed (that is, in the pages of the exam that we provide). We will not accept answers written outside these exam pages;

j) the exam is about the contents of all modules (module 1 to 4);

k) the exam is to be done only in presence (the exam cannot be taken online).
