EPAL candidates sit specialty exams in Electrical Machines and Navigation II as Panhellenic 2026 continues

Exam day on 11 June

Candidates from vocational lyceums (EPAL) across Greece continued the 2026 Panhellenic university entrance exams on Thursday. The day’s schedule was devoted entirely to specialty subjects, with examinees tested in four distinct fields. The Ministry of Education published the topics on its official website shortly after 10:00 a.m., allowing public access and subsequent commentary by educational organisations.

Subjects and topics released

Examinees faced questions in Ηλεκτρικές Μηχανές (Electrical Machines), Σύγχρονες Γεωργικές Επιχειρήσεις (Modern Agricultural Enterprises), Ναυσιπλοΐα ΙΙ (Navigation II) and Ναυτικές Μηχανές (Naval Machines). All four sets of topics were posted online during the morning. Naftemporiki.gr, in partnership with Poukamisa Tutoring Centers, presented the full exam papers alongside detailed commentary and model answers.

Exam rules and duration

Each examination session began at 8:30 a.m., with candidates required to be inside the examination rooms no later than 8:00 a.m. The written test lasted three hours. Permitted items included a national ID card or passport, the Panhellenic examination candidate card, a blue or black pen (pencils were allowed only if expressly stated in the topic instructions), an eraser and sharpener, geometry instruments where relevant, a bottle of water or juice, and a conventional wristwatch (smartwatches were forbidden).
