Same over here. Although we also have the option to do something else (like an essay or short review) to pass, but depending on the type of “something else “ we get fewer credit points by doing this and depending on the subject, we won’t be able to get enough CPs. And in some subjects we’re actually supposed to write a certain number of term papers.
