PROCEDURE FOR CALCULATING INTERNAL MARKS

For all theory and practical courses the continuous assessment shall be for a maximum of 20 marks (consisting of 15 marks for Internal Assessment tests/experiments and 5 marks for attendance). The above continuous assessment shall be awarded as per the procedure given below:

Explanation for 15 marks

1.Theory Courses

Three Internal Assessment tests each carrying 100 marks shall be conducted during the semester by the Department / College concerned.
The total marks obtained in all tests put together out of 300, shall be proportionately reduced for 15 marks and rounded to the nearest integer (This also implies equal weight age to all the three tests).

2.Practical Courses:

Every practical exercise / experiment shall be evaluated based on the exercise / experiment prescribed as per the syllabus and the records of work done maintained.

There shall be at least one test during the semester. The criteria for arriving at the internal assessment marks (15 marks) shall be decided based on the recommendation of the class committee and shall be announced at the beginning of every semester by the Principal.

3.Internal Assessment for Theory Courses with Laboratory Component:

The maximum marks for Internal Assessment shall be 15 in case of theory courses with Laboratory component.

If there is a theory course with Laboratory component, there shall be three tests: the first two tests (each 100 marks) will be from theory portions and the third test (maximum mark 100) will be for laboratory component. The sum of marks of first two tests shall be reduced to 30 marks and the third test mark shall be reduced to 30 marks. The sum of these 60 marks (Vide clause 11) may then be arrived at for 15 and rounded to the nearest integer.

The remaining 5 marks for attendance shall be awarded as given below:
