Examen philosophicum is common in Norwegian universities.
It is worth noting that this is common to all first degrees, and may or may not be tailored to your particular subject area, so it's often up to the learner to work out apply the theory to their own scenarios.
That is just another required course to pass though? I mean unless the teacher is especially good (which they practically never are if for any part of a non lap course there is compulsory attendance) you regurgitate the subject and forget everything the day after the exam, right?
