5. Evaluation Scheme:
Component 1 Mid Semester Exam 20
Component 2 Assignment Evaluation 05
Component3 Attendance 05
Component 4** End Term Examination** 70
Total 100
Internal assessment is done through quiz tests, presentations, assignments and tutorial. Two sets of
question papers are asked from each faculty and out of these two, without the knowledge of faculty,
one question paper is chosen for the concerned examination. Examination rules and regulations are
uploaded on the student’s portal. Evaluation is a very transparent process and the answer sheets of
sessional tests, internal assessment assignments are returned back to the students.
The components of evaluations along with their weight age followed by the University is given below
** The End Term Comprehensive examination will be held at the end of semester. The
mandatory requirement of 75% attendance in all theory classes is to be met for being eligible to
appear in this component.
