Minimum knowledge essential for passing the exam:

For passing the exam is required, as well as sufficient knowledge of the legal fundamentals of private law, adequate capacity-systematic reconstructive and exhibition, in keeping with the legal terminology: all aimed to demonstrate an adequate understanding of the practical implications of legislation. The final evaluation, expressed by voting, will be proportionately higher because of greater compliance examination of those principles.

It is recalled that also constitutes an indispensable tool for the study and the preparation of the systematic consultation of the civil code and related laws. In this regard, we recommend: the Civil Code by A. DI MAJO, Giuffrè, latest edition; or: the Civil Code by G. DE NOVA, Zanichelli, latest edition.
