Exam
In 2016, exam consisted of three parts:
- A, 20 points – Test, 20 statements, mark as True or False. Some questions can be argued both ways (e.g. “SysML is basically the same as UML”). Ask for clarifications of every statement that is ambiguous (half of them are), it won’t help much but who knows…
- B, 40 points (≈6 questions) – Theoretical questions (e.g. what is systems engineering), at least one question about SysML notation (e.g. the meaning of different arrows).
- C, 40 points (≈6 questions) – Practical task. You’re given a system, draw required diagrams (context, use case, …), write functional/non-functional requirements, etc. Basically, anything that was in your course project. This part is mostly unambiguous, you’ll be told exactly what to do and in what amount.
Be prepared that 2 hours is not enough to finish all of the tasks properly. It is much easier to do the exam the second time (you will know the format of the exam and you’ll understand the grading system), so if you’re taking the exam consider going to retake also (you’ll be given a different variant, but that’s OK. Hint-hint, they are not completely different). Also, ask to take a look at your first exam after it is graded, it will help you understand what he expects to see in the answers (e.g. there are questions like “Vee model, write everything you know”).
