parandustest

Parandustest is an Estonian term referring to a makeup examination or retake offered to students who wish to improve a grade after an initial assessment. The word combines parandus (correction) with test, and is used to denote an opportunity to demonstrate knowledge again.

Usage and scope: In many Estonian schools and universities, parandustest provide a second chance for students who did not meet the required standard. They are typically available for most subjects, though allowances vary by institution and syllabus. Parandustest procedures are defined by school regulations and, where applicable, national education policies.

Administration: A parandustest is usually scheduled after the original assessment window. Students may be required to complete additional work, attend preparation sessions, or meet eligibility criteria such as satisfactory attendance or completion of prerequisite tasks.

Grading: The impact on a student’s final grade depends on local rules. Some institutions replace the original grade with the parandustest result if it is higher; others may average it with the initial score or set a maximum achievable grade for the retake. In all cases, the policy specifies the number of allowed attempts and deadlines.

Notes: Parandustest policies vary between schools and programs. They are analogous to makeup exams or retakes in other education systems, but the exact rules—including eligible courses, scoring, and deadlines—are determined locally.
