Assessment:
Internal Assessment:
Assessment consists of two class tests of 20 marks each. The first class test is to be conducted when
approx. 40% syllabus is completed and second class test when additional 40% syllabus is completed.
Duration of each test shall be one hour.
End Semester Theory Examination:
1 Question paper will comprise of total six questions.
2 All question carries equal marks
3 Questions will be mixed in nature (for example supposed Q.2 has part (a) from module 3 then
part (b) will be from any module other than module 3)
4 Only Four question need to be solved
5 In question paper weightage of each module will be proportional to number of respective lecture
hours as mention in the syllabus
