Allowed to keep terms

Allowed to keep terms (ATKT) 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 next grade.

It has backronyms like Tried and Keep trying.
