Inter second year students to be awarded first year marks

Students not satisfied with the results can take the exams as and when situation becomes conducive

Second year Intermediate students who have been declared as ‘passed’ this year due to COVID-19 will, however, have to be content with the marks they scored in the first year examinations. The government has decided to award the same marks scored by them in each subject in the first year examinations. All students would be awarded the same marks, but they would get total marks for the practical examinations. This procedure, however, will be valid for this year only. In an order released on Wednesday, the government said that “the marks obtained by regular students in the Intermediate first year 2020 (general, vocational and bridge course) should be taken as the basis for awarding marks in the second year for this year, for each student”. Since practical exams were not conducted, 100% marks will be given to students in the practicals (general, vocational and bridge course).
