As per the university rule, prior to each of these semester examination, the Department has to conduct internal & tutorial evaluations. Under the CBCS curriculum, each paper comprises an internal & tutorial component which accounts for 35% of the total marks assigned to a paper. Of these 35% of  total marks , 10 is allotted to internal examination and the 10 to attendance and remaining 15 to tutorial examination . In addition to this internal and tutorial  assessment as per the University schedule, regular class tests (both surprise tests and tests with prior notification) are conducted by the Department as part of the Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) process. Besides, at the beginning of semester 1, an Entry Level Test is held by the department to assess the level of knowledge of the new entrants. On the basis of the performance of the students in this test, the Department categorizes them as weak learners and advanced learners and adopts teaching techniques accordingly. Remedial classes are organized for the weak students, whereas, students’ seminar, poster presentation, subject quiz and other interactive and participative activities are arranged, keeping in mind mainly the advanced learners.However, the Department officially allows all the students to take part in such activities, to avoid discrimination. The Department provides the students with required assistance in case of any grievance regarding any examination related issue and if required, forwards the agenda to the Grievance-redressal cell or Examination sub-committee of the college.
