French term or phrase: sous-épreuve
Hi,
I am currently translating Exam Regulations of a "Baccalauréat Professionnel" for Australia
It is in table format and at the top I have:

ÉPREUVE UNITÉ COEF FORME DURÉE FORME DURÉE FORME DURÉE

and in the left column, I have:

"E1: Épreuve scientifique et technique
Sous-épreuve A1:
Sciences et techniques industrielles"

"sub-test" or "sub-assessment" seem strange to me...

Thanks for your help.

module


Explanation:
module
any in a series of standardized units for use together: such as
(1)
: a unit of furniture or architecture
(2)
: an educational unit which covers a single subject or topic

But "sub-examination/assessment" would be OK too.

neutral  Emmanuella: Un module est différent cf. lien dans la DB// module is a main course not a test at the University !

  -> I should have put "sub-examination/assessment" first and module as an alternative.

Section A1


Explanation:
These are tests that I regularly see in the school system in France. Whereas épreuve could be translated as test, sous-épreuve just means that it's a section of the test.
