The evaluation of each course shall contain two parts:
The internal to external assessment ratio shall be 1:4, for courses with or without practical. There shall be a maximum of 80 marks for external evaluation and maximum of 20 marks for internal evaluation. For all courses (theory & practical), grades are given on a 07-point scale based on the total percentage of marks. (ISA+ESA) as given below
Percentage of Marks | Grade | Grade Point |
---|---|---|
90 and above | A+ - Outstanding | 10 |
80-89 | A - Excellent | 9 |
70-79 | B - Very Good | 8 |
60-69 | C - Very Good | 7 |
50-59 | D - Good | 6 |
40-49 | E - Adequate | 5 |
Below 40 | F - Failure | 4 |
Credit Point (CP) of a course is calculated using the formula CP = C x GP, where C = Credit; GP = Grade point Credit Point Average (CPA) of a Semester/Programme is calculated using the formula
CPA = TCP/TC, where TCP = Total Credit Point; TC = Total Credit Grades for the different semesters and overall programme are given based on the corresponding CPA as shown below:
CPA | Grade |
---|---|
Above 8, but below or equal to 9 | A - Excellent |
Above 7, but below or equal to 8 | B -Very Good |
Above 6, but below or equal to 7 | C - Good |
Above 5, but below or equal to 6 | D - Satisfactory |
Above 4, but below or equal to 5 | E - Adequate |
4 or below | F - Failure |
Note: A separate minimum of 30% marks each for internal and external (for both theory and practical) and aggregate minimum of 40% are required for a pass for a course. For a pass in a programme, a separate minimum of Grade E is required for all the individual courses. If a candidate secures F Grade for any one of the courses offered in a Semester/Programme only F grade will be awarded for that Semester/Programme until he/she improves this to E grade or above within the per- mitted period. Candidate who secures E grade and above will be eligible for higher studies
The external examination of all semesters shall be conducted by the University at the end of each semester. Internal evaluation is to be done by continuous assessment. Marks distribution for external and internal assessments and the components for internal evaluation with their marks are shown below:
Components of the internal evaluation and their marks are as below.
