230503 Speaking (Exemption by Test) (S) (SoSe 2006)

Students who speak completely fluent, natural English and can use English with absolute assurance in any situation, including academic discussions and presentations, may apply for an interview, as a result of which - if the interviewer judges their performance to warrant it - they will be granted an exemption from the "Speaking" course in BM1.

This option is aimed above all at those students who have spent roughly a year abroad in an English-speaking country, are English-German bilinguals or have partly grown up in an English-speaking environment. Generally speaking, students who were simply good at English at school or who have lived in an English-speaking environment for under 8 months do not perform well enough to be exempted, so please do not inquire about this option unless you are convinced that you fit the profile of an exemption candidate.
