If you will purhcase the book of theory Mazzoldi-Nigro-Voci (EDISES) access the E-Book on-line, on which the techers publishes specific annotations for your own course www.edisesuniversita.it + Book code (18 months) 2) Michelotti, Fisica generale - Esercizi svolti, Nuova Edizione 2023, Esculapio Editore.

For the theoretical part of the course (9cfu) the theoretical lectures and the exercise sessions will be held in a hall. A detailed description of the content of the course is available at: https://www.sbai.uniroma1.it/~francesco.michelotti/Corso_di_Fisica_1_Michelotti_AA2022_23.pdf

The final exam of the Physics 1 course consists of a written test and an oral colloquium. In order to pass the written test a student must get a mark larger or equal to 18/30. Te final mark is determined as 1/3 of the mark of the written exam + 2/3 of the mark of the oral exam, with some corrections depending on the level of the oral exam. Target of the written test: minimum 18/30 Target of the oral test: minimum 18/30 Written exam exemptions - During the course, students enrolled in the year in which the course is held can take part in two intermediate exemptions. The first approximately halfway through the course, the second at the end of the course. - Passing the exemptions allows direct access to the oral exam without having to take the written exam again. - The minimum grade to pass an exemption test is 13/30. If you get a grade lower than 13/30 in the first exemption, you cannot take the second - The final grade assigned after taking both exemptions is calculated as the arithmetic mean of the two exemption grades - The minimum final exemption grade to access the oral exam without taking the written exam is 18/30 - Exemptions are only valid for the June and July sessions of the year in which the course was held. Students exempted from the written exam who do not take the oral exam within these sessions must take the written exam again
