Examinersa. Appointment of ExaminersExaminers shall be appointed by the JSSAHER to conduct the end Semester JSSAHER examinations, from the panel of examiners approved by the Board of Studies.For Practical examinations, there shall be one external examiner and one internalexaminer. Theory paper shall be valued by both the examiners.b. Qualification and Experience of ExaminersFor question paper setting and external examiner: Post graduation in the respective field with five years of teaching experience.For Internal examiners: Post graduation in the respective field with three years ofteaching experience.10. Criteria for passCore Subjects: Candidates are declared to have passed in a subject, if they secure40% of marks in JSSAHER examination and internal assessment added together.Theory & practical shall be considered as separate subjects. If a candidate passesin practical examination but fails in theory paper, such candidate is exempted from10

reappearing for practical but shall have to appear in the subsequent examinationfor the theory paper in which the candidate has failed OR vice versa.Language papers, allied papers, skill enhancement and elective papers: The minimum prescribed marks for a pass shall be 35% of the maximum marks prescribedfor a subject.11. Grading of performancesa. Letter grades and grade points allocationsBased on the performances, each student shall be awarded a final letter gradeat the end of the year for each course. The letter grades and their correspondinggrade points are given in Table – XIV.Table – XIV: Letter grades and grade points equivalent to percentage ofmarks and performancesOABCDEGradePoint1098765Less than 40F0FailAbsentAB0FailPercentage of Marks obtained Letter Grade90.0080.0070.0060.0050.0040.00– 100– 89.99– 79.99– 69.99– 59.99- actoryAverageA candidate who remains absent for any end of year examination shall be assigned a letter grade of AB and a corresponding grade point of zero. He/she shouldreappear for the said evaluation/examination in due course.b. The Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA)The performance of a student in a semester is indicated by a number called ‘Semester Grade Point Average’ (SGPA). The SGPA is the weighted average of thegrade points obtained in all the courses by the student during the semester. For example, if a student takes five courses (Theory/Practical) in a semester with creditsC1, C2, C3, C4 and C5 and the student’s grade points in these courses are G1, G2,G3, G4 and G5, respectively, and then students’ SGPA is equal to:C1G1 C2G2 C3G3 C4G4 C5G5SGPA 1 C2 C3 C4 C5The SGPA is calculated to two decimal points. It should be noted that, the SGPAfor any semester shall take into consideration the F and ABS grade awarded in thatsemester. For example if a learner has a F or ABS grade in course 4, the SGPA shallthen be computed as:11

C1G1 C2G2 C3G3 C4* ZERO C5G5SGPA -------C1 C2 C3 C4 C5c. Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)The CGPA is calculated with the SGPA of all the VIII semesters to two decimal pointsand is indicated in final grade report card/final transcript showing the grades of allVIII semesters and their courses. The CGPA shall reflect the failed status in caseof F grade(s), till the course(s) is/are passed. When the course(s) is/are passed byobtaining a pass grade on subsequent examination(s) the CGPA shall only reflectthe new grade and not the fail grades earned earlier. The CGPA is calculated as:C1S1 C2S2 C3S3 C4S4 C5S5 C6S6 C7S7 C8S8CGPA ----------------------C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6 C7 C8where C1, C2, C3, . is the total number of credits for semester I,II,III, . and S1, S2,S3, .is the SGPA of semester I,II,III, . .12. Declaration of classThe class shall be awarded on the basis of CGPA as follows:First Class with DistinctionFirst ClassSecond ClassPass Class CGPACGPACGPACGPAof. 7.50 and aboveof 6.00 to 7.49of 5.00 to 5.99of 4.00 to 4.9913. Carry overA candidate should pass all the subjects (core/language/skill enhancement/ allied/elective) of first semester, to enter into the third semester. Similarly, secondsemester subjects should be cleared before entering fourth semester and thirdsemester subjects should be cleared before entering fifth semester. However, thecandidate must have passed all the previous subjects (core/language/skill enhancement/ allied/elective) to appear for the sixth semester Deemed to be University examination14. Award of Ranks/MedalsRanks and Medals shall be awarded on the basis of final CGPA. However, candidates who fail in one or more subject during the course shall not be eligible foraward of ranks.15. Award of degreeA candidate who has passed in all the subjects (core/language/allied/skill enhancement/elective papers) of all the semesters shall be eligible for award of degree.16. Revaluation and Re-totaling of answer papersThere is no provision for revaluation of the answer papers in any examination.However, the candidates can apply for re-totaling by paying prescribed fee.17. Maximum duration for completion of courseA candidate shall complete the course within six years from date of admission,failing, which candidate shall re-register for the course.12
