Lebanese University Faculty of Agronomy Entrance Examination · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.
The LU Faculty of Agronomy entrance exam is the competitive admission test for applicants seeking a place at the Faculty of Agronomy of the Lebanese University, the public institution that trains agronomists and the entry point to careers in crop production, plant protection, animal science, food technology and rural development. It targets holders of the Lebanese baccalaureate, or an equivalent diploma, with a science background, and it rewards breadth rather than narrow specialisation. The Lebanese University Faculty of Agronomy Entrance Examination study guide has 6 sections and about 1,954 words.
01Biology: cells, physiology, genetics and taxonomy
Biology in this entrance examination tests whether you can move between molecular detail and whole-plant or whole-animal function, then apply genetic and taxonomic reasoning to unfamiliar cases. Expect definitions, process questions, crosses and classification of local flora and fauna.
361 words, about 2 min02Chemistry: general, organic and analytical
Chemistry on this examination tests quantitative general chemistry, the structure and reactions of organic molecules, and the logic of analytical measurements. Expect mole calculations, pH and buffers, titration curves, functional-group identification and isomer counting.
327 words, about 2 min03Mathematics: algebra, analysis, probability and statistics
Mathematics tests fluent manipulation and interpretation rather than memorized formulas. Expect function domains, logarithmic and exponential equations, limits and derivatives, definite integrals, probability trees and descriptive statistics.
310 words, about 2 min04Physics: mechanics, fluids, electricity, optics and thermodynamics
Physics tests model selection and unit discipline across mechanics, fluids, electricity, optics and thermodynamics. Expect force diagrams, conservation laws, circuit analysis, lens calculations and gas-law reasoning.
313 words, about 2 min05Earth sciences and environment: soil, climate, ecology and resources
Earth sciences and environment tests how soil, climate, organisms and resources interact, with a strong Mediterranean and Lebanese field context. Expect texture and water-holding calculations, climate classification, trophic reasoning and land-management judgments.
321 words, about 2 min06Languages and scientific communication: Arabic, French and English
This section tests whether you can read and produce precise scientific text in Arabic, French and English. Expect vocabulary in context, sentence rewriting, unit and symbol conventions, and recognition of register errors rather than literary analysis.
