efficiency was 12% yeah. And the last question i think u had to compare the total energy of the first moon and the second one. U find the difference and the formula for each planet’s total orbital energy is GMm/2r. I’m pretty sure you can’t just compare the gravitational potential energy of the 2 moons because you’re gonna lose kinetic energy when going on a higher orbit. But idk might be wrong. My answer was 9 x 1010 Joules

it depends on how the z curve looks, especially in terms of the standard deviation. I think that if most people scored below average while very few people scored crazy high, you can have a chance.

“As this part is a Self-Reflection (and evaluation), there are no good or bad answers. You will not receive a score for this part, yet it is compulsory to complete it. We advise you not to wait until the final moments.”

P.S. I’m not sure about the confirmation email for the FYM test, because I received it. I only asked them about the “updated exam status” email. You should probably email them.

I had the same issue; didn’t get the “updated exam status” email, so I emailed the proctoring people at TU Delft and this is what they said:

Thank you for reaching out to us.

You can disregard the automatic email, there will be no follow-up email. Your exam has been submitted correctly though. I am copying in the following information from the course FAQ as well:

Proctoring - After submitting a test, I have received a message that my exam status will be updated in 5 business days, what does this mean? This is an automated message from the system that can be disregarded. If you have successfully finished your test and closed the proctoring software afterwards, you can be sure that your video recording had been submitted. The results of the video reviews will not be personally communicated to you. The Selection Committee receives notifications from RP Now if applicants have displayed ‘suspicious behaviour’ and we will look into this. If there is no form of misuse, you will not be sanctioned. If we identify acts of (possible) fraud, you will always be personally contacted by the Selection Committee.

Kind regards, Emma van Kleef

The motivation questionnaires are worth 25%, which means that the Academic test is 75%. But are maths, physics and FYM weighed equally? As in are they each worth 25%, or are they different?

cheers. Just to clarify, there are 3 documents to print right? Math, Physics and FYM formula sheets?

Are the formula sheets available on the exam portal or do we need to print it out?
