How are vivas assessed?
These videos explore how vivas are scored to provide a clear understanding of the evaluation criteria. The written commentary highlights examiner techniques and assessment of the candidates’ performance.
Please Note: These are simulated vivas created for demonstration and educational purposes only, and do not represent the professional practice of those involved in the simulations. It is also important to note that viva exams are usually conducted with two examiners, not one as depicted in the videos.
