Policy on Returning Examinations Exams are designed to be both a means of evaluation and a learning experience. The program will determine how students will receive feedback in a timely manner for each exam. To maintain the integrity of summative examinations, examination reviews—when conducted—will take place in a secure environment. These reviews will focus on addressing content areas severely or disproportionally skewed among the cohort, as designated by the course director, and will be referred to as highly missed questions. The actual examination questions will not be reviewed; instead, the subject matter within the cohort will be addressed at a time specified by the course director. During this process, note-taking, electronic media usage, recording devices, or any other such devices are strictly prohibited and will be considered a violation of the policy. Students are not permitted to duplicate, receive, or distribute examination questions or answers. Violations of this policy are considered a breach of the Code of Student Conduct and Academic Responsibility, and the student will be referred to the Committee on Student Progress.
