Evaluation Methodology
Continuous assessment consists of three written tests. The first is marked from 0 to 6 and the other two tests are marked 0 to 7.
Students are not required to take an examination, i.e., they will pass continuous assessment if they get at least 2 marks in each test and a minimum average mark of 10 out of 20.
