6. Evaluation System and Students’ Responsibilities

Evaluation System
Internal evaluation will be based on the set of tutorials in the semester. The final examination
will be held by the PU Examination Controller’s Office. The internal and external evaluation
detail is given in the table below:

Evaluation Marks
Internal assessment 50
Final examination 50
Total 100

Student Responsibilities
Each student must secure at least 45% marks in internal evaluation with 80% attendance in
the class in order to appear in the Semester End Examination. Failing to get such score will
be given NOT QUALIFIED (NQ) and the student will not be eligible to appear the Semester-
End Examinations. Students are advised to attend all the classes, formal exam, test, etc. and
complete all the assignments within the specified time period. Students are required to
