Internal Examination Pattern:

Each of the two internal examinations has to be conducted out of 50 marks. First Internal
Examination shall be preferably conducted after completing the first half of the syllabus, and the
Second Internal Examination shall be preferably conducted after completing the remaining part of
the syllabus. There will be two parts: Part A and Part B. Part A contains 5 questions (preferably, 2
questions each from the completed modules and 1 question from the partly covered module),
having 3 marks for each question adding up to 15 marks for part A. Students should answer all
questions from Part A. Part B contains 7 questions (preferably, 3 questions each from the
completed modules and 1 question from the partly covered module), each with 7 marks. Out of
the 7 questions in Part B, a student should answer any 5.

End Semester Examination Pattern:

There will be two parts; Part A and Part B. Part A contains 10 questions with 2 questions from
each module, having 3 marks for each question. Students should answer all questions. Part B
contains 2 questions from each module of which a student should answer anyone. Each question
can have a maximum 2 subdivisions and carries 14 marks.
