Information about the exam
Unlike the ETH entrance examination, the UZH only offers one examination option, which is based on the Federal Matura. ExamPrep prepares the participants for all subjects to be taken in the UZH entrance exam except the second language. Second languages are not part of the ExamPrep curriculum, but are offered as private lessons on request.
