10. Last date for Submission of Assignments/Project: The dates for the submission of the Assignments / Project Reports (by the students to LC) will be decided by the HOD-Information Technology and will be put up on the website www.smude.edu.in and www.edunxt.smude.edu.in, in such a way that the Learning Centre is able to submit the IA/ Project marks to the Office of Student Evaluation by the due date as specified in the Website (www.smude.edu.in). The Assignments form a part of continuous evaluation. 11. University Examination: The University Examination will be conducted at designated examination centres twice a year as under:
Session Spring Session Fall Session Session Commencement February August Examination July /Aug same year Jan/Feb subsequent year
The dates of the examination along with the detailed instructions will be published well in advance in the website www.smude.edu.in. 11.1 University Question Paper Pattern There will be only multiple choice questions (MCQs) in the University Question Papers as per details given below: Question Distribution Table:
Credit 4 2 Question Distribution Part A 40 20 Part B 20 11 Part C 15 7 Total Time 2 hrs. 1 hr. Total Marks 140 70
Notes: 1. In general, MCQs are of three types, i.e. one mark, two marks & four marks. 2. The mark distribution is based upon the complexity involved in the question. 3. There will be 25% negative marking for each wrong answer. 4. General time distribution for each type of question is as follows (applicable for a paper with 4 credits).
Part A 1 mark No. of Questions Time (in min.)/Question Total Time 40 1 min. 40 Part B 2 marks 20 1 min. 30 Part C 4 marks 15 3 min. 45
Grand total = 1 Hour 55 Minutes + 5 Minutes (for filling up the forms/revision) = 2 hrs. 5. In special cases, modifications may be made based upon the subject requirements. 6. Question paper will contain all three types of questions, but, the number of questions in each part may be varied without affecting the total marks. 7. There is no provision for revaluation essentially because the valuation is done by scanning the answer sheet. The answer sheet is marked by
the student by darkening the appropriate circle to indicate the answer for a question. The scanning process, which evaluates the student performance, is 100% error free and hence there is no need for revaluation. However, it is appropriate to mention that the analysis of the answers show the following as the main reasons for students failure or for scoring low marks in the Examinations: a) In some cases students make mistakes in darkening the appropriate columns; for example, while marking an answer for question No. 3, the student wrongly darkens against the field for question No. 4. This happens when due care is not taken to verify the appropriate column for answering. Students are advised to take due care and mark the answer sheet on question-to-question basis, instead of transferring the answers in one lot at the final moment of the examination. This practice is disastrous because it results in a chain of wrong answers. b) In some cases, the students mark more than one answer by darkening the additional circles. The scanning is programmed to disregard these answers and hence the student loses marks. c) The students are also advised to write correctly the data in the answer sheet such as Roll No., Test Booklet No., Subject Code, and Centre Code. The instructions given in the MCQ answer sheet for these must be strictly complied with. 8. Clashing of subjects in case of Re-sitting: The schedule of examinations is such that every student can appear for the subjects with respect to two semesters, provided the combination of semesters is odd and even. In some cases, students apply for re-sitting in subjects, which clash with other papers in the schedule of the examinations. SUCH STUDENTS ARE PERMITTED TO APPEAR ONLY IN ANY ONE OF THE AFFECTED SUBJECTS. NO STUDENT WILL BE PERMITTED TO APPEAR IN MORE THAN ONE SUBJECT IN A SCHEDULED SESSION ON A PARTICULAR DAY. Efforts will be made to include an endorsement that RESITTING SUBJECTS CLASH in the Re-sitting Admit Cards of all such cases. However, the rule is applicable to all such cases, even if the remark doesnt appear in the admit cards.
9. Reappearance: There is no provision for improvement of grading by reappearance in the University Examinations or Internal Assessment, once the student is declared as passed. 11.2 Minimum Passing Marks: In each paper, a student shall secure at least 35% marks in Continuous Evaluation (Internal Assessment) and 35% marks in University Examination, however, with an aggregate of 40% for pass. A student who fails in any one of the above (i.e. Continuous Evaluation or University Examination) will be required to reappear in that component only. The students must note that for re-appearing for IA, the students have to fill in the Re-sitting Forms. In case a student scores 35 percent independently in both components, but fails to score 40 percent aggregate, he/she will be considered failed. Such students will have to appear either in both or in any one of the components of their choice.
11.3 Classification of Successful Candidates: A students performance will be evaluated based on both Continuous Evaluation and University Examination. The Grade System (aggregate) Grade A Excellent B Very Good C Good D Satisfactory E Failure Marks (%) 70 and above 60 - 69 50 - 59 40 - 49
11.4 Carry-over Provision: Please note that since there is a carry over system for every semester, self-study should start automatically for the next Semester without waiting for the examination result.
12. Examination and Result Publication: The University will conduct term-end examinations at designated Examination Centres. The term-end examination centre, date of examination and other related instructions of the examinations will be published well in advance of the date of examination in the website www.smude.edu.in NO STUDENT WILL BE ALLOWED TO APPEAR FOR THE EXAMINATION WITHOUT ADMIT CARD. Learning Centres are not permitted to issue any authority letter for appearing in the examination. Learning Centres should not withhold the admit cards of any student for any reason. Admit Cards will be issued only to those students who fulfil the prerequisites as specified by the University. (e.g., Admit Cards will be issued to all Fresh and Re-Registered students and Re-sitting Candidates, who have filled up the Re-sitting Form before the last date specified by the University.) The Admit Card is valid only when produced along with the Identity Card issued by the University. Candidates are not allowed to bring inside the Examination Hall, Mobile Phones, calculators, statistical/scientific tables, lap top computers or any object/device/ gadget that would be of unfair assistance in answering the University question papers. However, scientific/nonprogrammable calculators are allowed for specific subjects (as mentioned in the time table). Possession of Mobile phone, even in Switched off condition shall be treated as unfair means. Hence, the students are strictly warned not to bring Mobile phone with them inside the Examination Hall. Examination Centres will not take any responsibility for the safe custody of the mobile phone. Fifteen minutes prior to the commencement of the examination, the candidate will receive the answer sheet. The candidate must ensure that it is printed properly. The test booklet will be provided just before the start of the examination. Each test booklet has a specific five-digit test booklet number printed on the front page of the test booklet. On the front page of the answer sheet, the candidate is required to write the Name (block capitals), Roll Number (nine digits) and Test Booklet Number (five digits) legibly, in the spaces provided for the purpose. On the reverse of the answer sheet, the candidate should carefully write the
Roll Number and Test Booklet Number in numerals in appropriate boxes using 2B pencil and completely blacken the corresponding circles. For example, if the Roll Number is 001050001 and the Test Booklet Number is 18960, the candidate shall write as follows:
Roll Number
THE CANDIDATES SHOULD NOT exchange their test booklets with other candidates during the examination, under any circumstances. CANDIDATES WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO ENTER EXAMINATION HALL AFTER TEN MINUTES OF COMMENCEMENT OF EXAMINATION. THE THE
Candidates are not allowed to leave the examination hall within I hour of commencement of the examination. The identity and signature of the candidates will be verified during the examination. Candidates are required to sign the declaration on the answer sheet in the invigilators presence. In the Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs), each question has only one correct answer and must be indicated by completely darkening the appropriate circle. Darkening of more than one circle will be regarded invalid/improper. For example, if a student has selected D as the answer to the given question, it should be entered in the correct manner as indicated in the following example: -
The test booklet can be used for rough work; but, no stray marks should be left on the answer sheet. The candidate should not fold, bend, cut, tear or otherwise deface/mutilate the answer sheet in any manner. Candidates must hand over the answer sheet and the test booklet to the invigilator before leaving the examination hall. Candidates caught cheating or attempting to cheat will be disqualified immediately and debarred from appearing for University Examinations in accordance with the prevailing rules of the University. The results will be published on the website www.smude.edu.in and marks card shall be sent to the respective Learning Centres.
13. General Points: The University reserves the right to add/delete/change the syllabi, program structure, rules and regulations without any prior notice as and when required and as per changes in environment. Students are advised to visit the University website www.smude.edu.in, where all the circulars and important information will be hosted from time to time. It is the endeavour of the University to upgrade the syllabus keeping in view the industrial/market requirement so as to impart the latest technology / developments to the students. It is, therefore, essential to upgrade the study materials periodically. The students are advised to keep themselves informed about the changes in the syllabus and the contents of the courseware constantly by visiting the website www.smude.edu.in, in addition to being in touch with LC in this regard. It is important to note that the examinations will be conducted based on the syllabus and contents applicable in that session. The implication is that a student, who reappears/re-sits for back paper, will be required to appear in the examination, which is based on the latest syllabus/content
of the courseware. It is, therefore, imperative that the student, who fails in a subject, should submit his/her re-sitting application at the earliest to enable the University to dispatch the new publication of the courseware (only in case of change in courseware). All the payments shall be made by the students in the form of DD drawn in favour of Sikkim Manipal University, DE payable at Manipal / Udupi and with the Name, Roll Number and Centre Code written on the reverse of the DD. The students are advised to retain the counter foil and photocopy of the DD with them for their reference. Any payments made by methods other than the above, shall be at the individuals own risk. Fees once paid cannot be refunded. Legal Disputes, if any, shall come under the jurisdiction of Udupi (Karnataka)
14. Final Semester Project Preparation and Submission Guideline Students must submit his/her project synopsis to the respective centre along with his / her name & number, centre code & address etc., and get it approved by them. Projects must be done individually. Must submit the final report within the stipulated time in the form of soft and hard copy to the study centre. The University will evaluate projects of Sixth Semester MCA by conducting Final Semester Project Internal Examination through internal & external examiner. Students must demonstrate their project at their study centre to the internal & external examiner on the date specified by the university. The date will be mentioned in the university term-end examination time table.
