Allowed to keep terms (ATKT)[1] is a process in the Indian education system to allow students of pre-graduation and graduation to study in next grade if they have failed 1 to 4 subjects. The students must pass the papers they failed before entering into to next grade. For example, if a first-year bachelor's degree student fails to get passing marks in his four subjects, the student must pass those subjects before entering third year, while the student can study in second year.[2][3]. It has backronyms like Tried and Keep trying.[4]

Criticism [link]

The ATKT system has been criticized, mainly by teachers:[5]

“ it will spoil students, it would bring down the quality of education in ourschool and colleges. And, the students would not have any motivation to study. ”

The Bottle And The Cross

by: Jaya The Cat

Last night on the 2, ride home. I swear man I saw an angel.
But when I looked again man, it was just another stranger.
Last night I saw liquor land, man I had a big mission.
13 horsemen riding on and off wind, so I turn my color to the gold.
Got back in my ride, turn up that stereo.
Man what do you have, that you don't need.
We need it all down here!
Temptation, redemption, the Bottle and the Cross.
Life's illusion, from everything you've done.
And somewhere out there,
I hear a SCREAM!
Last night in brigham circle the devil tried to mug me.
And I said: "Man what do I got, you don't got allready?"
You know he looked up to me and said: "Maybe you're right"
Maybe I got something else for you tonight,
He said: "Man what do you need, that you don't own?"
"We got it all down here!"
Temptation, redemption, the Bottle and the Cross.
Life's illusion, from everything you've done.
And somewhere out there over the airwaves,
I hear a SCREAM!
And when the music takes control, it's allright by me.
Ooh another moon rise competing with the lights of the bright city.
Caught between the drum and the baseline, you know it's allright.
SAM System homing like a 737's come to take me back home.
