Williams Biblical Studies Challenge Exams Challenge exams are designed for those who have a working knowledge of the course content as a result of prior learning (attending a Christian high school, for example), but were not able to transfer that work to Biola. Informal, personal study normally will not prepare one adequately to pass these exams. Exams are available for BBST 109 (3 credits) and BBST 110 (3 credits). These exams may be taken only during the student’s first year at Biola. Also, if the student has taken the course (or even a portion of it), the student is not eligible to take the corresponding challenge exam. Exams are given in two parts, written and oral. Successful performance must be attained on both the written and oral portions in order for the student to receive credit for the challenge exam. Grades are recorded on a credit or no-credit basis only. No re-takes permitted.
