How are examinations and grading done in a B.A. General course? ?

At Lovely Professional University (LPU), the B.A. General program's evaluation is based on a dual system comprising Continuous Assessment (CA) and End-Term Examinations (ETE). CA, which typically holds a weightage of around 30%, includes internal assessments such as quizzes, assignments, presentations, and mid-term exams. The ETE, which constitutes 70% of the total marks, is a comprehensive final exam held at the end of each semester. To pass a course, a student must achieve a minimum of 30% in the ETE and a combined overall score of 35-40%. The university employs a relative grading system and the final result is presented as a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) on a 10-point scale. This structured approach ensures a fair and continuous evaluation of a student's academic progress.

hi, Examinations and grading in a B.A. General course are usually conducted under either the annual system or the semester system (most universities now follow the semester system). Here’s how it works: Examinations: Students appear for exams at the end of each semester (or annually in some universities). Each paper typically has a written exam plus internal assessment (assignments, presentations, attendance, class tests, etc.). Practical subjects also include lab/fieldwork exams. Grading: Most universities follow a Credit-Based Grade Point Average (CGPA) or Cumulative Grade Point System (CGPS). Students receive grades (A, B, C, etc.) or grade points (e.g., 8.0/10) instead of just marks. Final grades are calculated based on combined scores of written exams, internal assessments, and practicals/projects.
