        1) The exam is a written one and consists of answering some open questions (one page is given to answer these questions) or ‘true or false’ questions which require a few lines of explanation. Students must be able to STRUCTURE their thoughts, SELECT the essential information (main rules and exceptions, categories or comparisons with related or distinct concepts) and ORGANISE their answers. 2) The use of the Penal Code (non annotated, but underlining is authorised) is not compulsory, but is strongly advised as it can help students find the relevant articles. As such, students must be able to find a given legal disposition in their Penal Code. Penal Codes from any editing house are accepted. The most up to date Penal Code can be found on the Justice Ministry’s website (www.just.fgov.be, choose the French tab for Belgian legislation, then choose ‘droit pénal’ from the drop down menu « nature juridique »)and can be downloaded for free.
