There will be several Ferienpräsenz before the oral exam in August. On this link (in German) you can see the available dates. Please register at least 24 hours in advance in order to participate!
The lectures will cover additional topics in abstract algebra:
(1) Galois theory
(2) Representation theory of finite groups
Galois theory will be tought more in detail, and basics in Category Theory will be also given.
The exercise classes are as follow:

Each week a new exercise sheet is available for the students roughly on Friday. The students should read it and try to solve the exercises. Questions about the exercise sheet will be answered the next Monday
during the exercise section, and some extra examples will be given.
Participation to the exercise sessions is thus strongly recommended! You
can then hand in your solutions by Wednesday, 17:00 (the boxes are still in HG J 68). The graded exercises will be returned to you in the following exercise class (or left in room J68).

There is a final 30-minutes oral exam in August (covering also Algebra I for students in D-MATH).
There is no testat condition, i.e., exercises have not role in determining the final grade. Nevertheless, it is strongly recommended to hand in the exercises each week in order to evaluate your progress with the course during the semester.
