Currently I'm again learning for a test. It's an oral 'Complex-Test' - on the 'Complex' "General Business Information Technology" containing five different subjects.

• Business Knowledge Management
• Organisation and Project Management
• Processmanagement
• IT-Strategy
• IT in production plants

Why do I do it?

Hmm, when I tell you that - you'll think, that I deserve not to get an university degree. ;)
Originally those five subjects get written seperately and the average of all five tests counts. Well, I only went to four of them - and then decided, that getting a fake sick certificate is lame and you just don't do that. Well, I failed in the original try because of that (and I only needed about 20 of 60 points in the last test). That was, hmmm... ok, let's call it, how it is: dumb!
The second and third round are then 'Complex-Tests'. All five subjects in a three hour written test. Well, I didn't pass those either. For the first I didn't learn. For the second only three days. And the second broke my neck by asking some nice questions like "Draw the image of page 276 of the book - make it exact or you won't get any of the 30 points for this question". I missed 12 points of 240 for passing that test.

And what's up now?

So, now I'm in the oral 'Complex-Test'. One hour quiz-show about all five subjects. If I don't pass this one - my studies end right here. I'll get 'dishonorably dissmissed', so to say. And at least I don't want that!

Why not in the regular testing period?

I was subscribed to this test in the last regular testing period. A week before the test university staff called me to tell me, that I don't meet all conditions to do this test. Now some weeks ago they called me again and said: "Hey, why weren't you there - you meet all conditions!" Argh! Well, thanks to the examination office on this one: To not end my studies right away, they organized me a second chance for this test on 01.12.

Wish me luck! :)
Thanks!
