There is one three-hour paper consisting of 5 questions each on epistemology and moral philosophy, and a second three-hour paper consisting of 5 questions each on the metaphysics of God and the metaphysics of mind. You will also be assessed throughout the course with written homework, class presentations, written exercises, and mock examinations. At the end of your first year, you will sit of formal 1st year exam which will inform both your predicted grade for UCAS applications and your progression to the second year of study.
