In the universities and other educational institutions, make-up/compensation examinations are made for students who cannot take the exam at the scheduled exam periods due to examinations, health problems and so on. Especially when there are a lot of students going into these examinations, preparing the exam schedule can be very difficult and time consuming. In the literature, generally exam scheduling problems are considered as when the number of sessions, examinations and students attending to the examinations are certain, examinations are assigned to the sessions by considering resource constraints such as supervisor, classroom. In this study, number of sessions is not known and desired to be minimized because the examinations must be completed within a short period. It is also aimed that the sessions are balanced as much as possible in terms of number of examinations and if a student will attend more than one examination in one day, the examinations will not be consecutive. A goal programming model is proposed for the considered problem. The developed model has been tested using real data from the Industrial Engineering Department of a University.
