Portuguese term

Exame de estado

Portuguese to English Other Certificates, Diplomas, Licenses, CVs Education/pedagogy
The term "exame de estado" is from a Mozambican certificate of bachelor's degree. "Exame de estado" is an examination that replaces a monograph and is done for obtaining a bachelor's degree.
In "Exame de estado" the student chooses a topic and does a bibliographic research, then presents it in a jury for obtaining the degree.

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Mario Freitas

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Thanks again, Viviani. Have a nice Sunday.
neutral philgoddard : No, as Rogelio says, this "replaces a monograph".

agree Adrian MM. : - regardless of the form it takes and whether or not taken 'barefoot' in Mozambique, as my friends from there are wont to walk! https://iate.europa.eu/search/result/1656870971283/1 cf. Staatsexamen in DEU and AUT as medical or law finals Part I or II.

Final examination

The term doesn't have a direct translation to English. I guess I'd write it as "Degree's final examination" or "Final exam before graduation" depending on the context, or even "Senior thesis' defence" but that would be stretching it a little.
Example sentence:

Ele defendeu o exame de estado ontem.

He completed his degree's final examination yesterday

final course exam/assessment

Sugestão.


A final assessment is the last activity students must complete in a course. A final assessment may be an exam, a culminating activity or a combination of the two. This task assesses students' knowledge of a subject and may be cumulative.

oral dissertation

Sorry, I haven't found a definition I can cut and paste, but there's one in article 25 here. The student researches a subject and is questioned on it, but doesn't write anything. I think "estado" may mean "status" rather than "government".
