– I understand why so many respond as they do.
That’s what Malene Svensli says. She is a student at NTNU and a shop steward in the Norwegian engineering and technology organization.
The survey was sent to 3,500 students studying engineering and technology. About 750 have responded.
Half say they are willing to meet on the day of the exam with symptoms of coronary heart disease.
Unsafety
NTNU has already stated that all exams that can be changed to home exams should be changed.
However, 663 home exams and 591 school exams are planned, writes Universitetsavisa.
Svensli will not encourage students to attend exams if they feel ill. Still, he realizes that many are insecure.
– Do they have to wait until January? Do they have to wait until another semester? For those with a lot of themes this spring, there will be plenty to do, says Svensli.
– Scary
Andreas Trohjell is the leader of the Norwegian student organization. It is the largest in the country with more than 240,000 members.
You are surprised by the survey.
– It’s a terrifying number. Students, of course, must follow the rules that are. But this shows the desperation among the students. You want this not to delay you in your studies.
Trohjell believes that many Norwegian students feel exactly the same as NTNU students. Now he asks all the institutions in the country to provide good information.
– I wish there were clear comments with information on how things should be done. And preferably also forms of examination that make it possible for everyone to participate, says Trohjell.
SCARY: The leader of the Norwegian student organization, Andreas Trohjell, thinks it is scary that so many students are willing to endure the symptoms of the crown to complete the exam. Still, understand why students choose to do it.

Deadline November 1
NTNU academic communities have been told to take home testing where academically justifiable and practically possible.
They have until November 1 to report how the exam will be conducted. After the deadline, an assessment of the total load per day is made.
– Then we may find that we do not have the capacity to complete all the school exams that the academic communities have wanted. They should then prioritize which exams still need to become home exams, Vice Chancellor Marit Reitan writes in an email to NRK.
Students should be notified of the exam form by the end of next week.
You must have a good infection plan
The municipality of Trondheim has an advisory role for NTNU on how they should complete their exams before Christmas.
Elizabeth Kimbell is Chief Physician in Trondheim Township. She herself has been conducting an inspection at some of the premises where she intends to conduct tests.
– We have made it clear to NTNU that it is important that students do not show up if they are sick. Also, you should have a plan for what to do if someone gets sick while completing the exam.
