lisäkokeisiin

Lisäkokeisiin refers to supplementary examinations or resits in the Finnish education system. These are opportunities for students who did not achieve a passing grade on their initial examination to retake the test and potentially improve their mark. The availability and structure of lisäkokeisiin can vary depending on the educational institution and the specific course or subject.

Typically, students are eligible for lisäkokeisiin after failing the regular examination. The examination board or the responsible teacher usually announces the dates and procedures for these supplementary tests. Students are often required to register in advance to participate. The content and format of a lisäkokeisiin may be identical to the original exam or it might be modified, for example, focusing on areas where the student showed particular weakness.

The purpose of lisäkokeisiin is to provide students with a second chance to demonstrate their understanding and mastery of the subject matter. Successfully passing a lisäkoe can mean the difference between passing or failing a course, which can have implications for overall academic progress, graduation, or continuation to further studies. It is important for students to understand the specific regulations and deadlines set by their institution regarding these supplementary examinations.
