In most doctoral programs, students must take a series of written/oral cumulative examinations on the subject of their study in the first year or two of the PhD program. These cumulative exams are often given on a pass/fail basis and a graduate student who seeks to continue in the PhD program must pass a minimum number of these cumulative exams. In some fields, the student must pass the comprehensive examinations before submitting a dissertation proposal.

In our university, the comprehensive examination is to be taken by the student after he/she had taken and passed all academic courses/subjects. The student needs to pass such comprehensive exam before he/she is allowed to enroll the dissertation writing course.
