+# FAQ
+
+- **My exam hasn't been reported**
+
+The examiner has 15 working days on them to report the exam to Ladok, but sometimes there can be a delay between student office and Ladok. 
+If the exam still isn't showing up after a couple of days, please contact the examiner and politely ask about it. 
+You may also want to contact your Studienämnd in that case.
+
+- **Where can I find important dates**
+
+Chalmers provides this [site](https://www.chalmers.se/en/education/your-studies/plan-and-conduct-your-studies/the-academic-year/) which has the current years academic plan.
+
+- **I forgot to apply for a course/exam**
+
+If you forgot to apply for a course, you might be able to fix it if you contact your Studienämnd, but there is no guarantee.
+However, if you forgot to apply for an exam, you will have to apply for the next re-exam and take that one.
+
+- **I failed an exam or laboration**
+
+The only thing that can be done is to retake them at the next opportunity.
+Exams that are in a programme plan have to offer 3 exams during a year.
+A laboration will usually have to be redone next year.
+
+- **What should I bring to an exam**
+
+What is required to do an exam is a pen (with ink), pencil and rubber.
+If the exam allows for a calculator, one can bring one of the allowed ones.[^calculator]
+It is recommended to bring some form of water bottle or drink, and something small to eat during the exam to have energy to complete it.[^food]
+
+- **Do you feel treated badly by a teacher, teacher assistant or another student**
+
+There is a service known as [safe at chalmers](https://www.chalmers.se/en/about-chalmers/organisation-and-governance/safe-at-chalmers/) where you can report incidents.
+
+- **My lab group is having issues, what should I do?**
+
+The short answer is to act in some way.
+Speak about it with the group to try to solve it.
+You could talk with a teacher assistant that you feel comfortable with if you think that would help.
+
+## If you have further questions

 Sometimes you have elective slots in your programme plan, which means that you can select any course marked as _elective_ within your programme plan.[^elective_caveat] For master students it may be interesting to know that you can read one or two courses (around 15hp) outside of your programme plan and still get your masters degree. This can vary between programmes so ask your student counsellor before deciding.

 Similar to MTS courses, you need at least 7.5hp if enrolled at TKDAT or TKITE.
 
+## Laborations
+
+Laborations usually takes place during the course, including the exam week for that course.
+Laborations have an associated amount of the _hp_ of the entire course. 
+This means that the exam rarely represents the entire 7.5hp of a course, as it is split between labs and exam.
+It will have to be handed in and sometimes even presented in class in order to pass.
+It is usually hard to redo these labs during the year if you fail, so it is recommend to complete them when the course is given.
+
+## Schedule
+The schedule for your courses can be found on [TimeEdit](https://cloud.timeedit.net/chalmers/web/public/).
+There you can search for the schedule for individual courses, or entire years for the programmes.
+Once you have searched and gotten the schedule for what you were looking for, you can subscribe to said schedule and add it to your own calendar applications, such as Google Calendar.

 [^elective_caveat] There may still be prerequisite requirements.
