I'm interested in international business program in Deventer. How many ects you need to get in year one I order to be able to continue to year two? Also, are the exams multiple questions? How many points you need to get in exams to pass it? And how many questions there are in total in the exams?

Hi Reeta!

1. You have to get at least 48 credits out of 60 possible during your first year to go onto your second year.

2. The format of the exams can vary and it can be changed every year (depending on the teacher and curriculum). There are subjects for which you have to write an assignment, or a take-home exam, a presentation, a written exam or a multiple-choice exam. These are the different forms of assessment.

3. The number of questions isn't certain for every exam but you can ask the teachers beforehand what to expect from every exam.

4. You have to get at least 55% right out of 100% in order to get a 'pass'.

5. Every subject 'weighs' different amount of ECTS. Usually it's 3-4 ECTS per subject. Projects are 6-7 ECTS.
