(Statutes and Ordinances, p. 286)
The regulations have been amended to introduce the possibility of a viva voce examination on the subject of a candidate's project. Regulation 25(f) has been deleted and replaced by a new Regulation 26 so as to read:
26. The Examiners shall have power to examine a candidate viva voce on the subject of her or his project submitted under Regulations 14, 16 or 19, or on her or his dissertation submitted under Regulation 25.
(Statutes and Ordinances, p. 289)
The Supplementary Regulations in respect of Paper 3 of Part I of the Tripos have been amended to specify the number of questions offered in different sections of the examination:
By deleting the third and fourth sentences from the second paragraph and by amending the last three sentences in the same paragraph so as to read:
Sections A and C will each contain four short questions: students will be required to answer all questions in these sections. Sections B and D will each contain two long questions of which students will be required to answer one. Statistical tables, and a list of the most important statistical formulae, will be provided.
The Faculty Board of Economics are satisfied that no student's preparations for the examination in 2009 will be adversely affected by this change.
