Examination Policy

Introduction

This section outlines the examination and evaluation system followed at JNURAK. The objective of this policy is to ensure a fair, transparent, and consistent assessment of students’ academic performance in accordance with University regulations.

The evaluation framework is designed to assess both continuous academic progress and final performance through Internal Continuous Evaluation (ICE) and Semester-End Examination (SEE). All students are required to adhere to the rules and procedures specified in this policy. Non-compliance may result in disciplinary action and may affect academic standing.

1 Evaluation Components

Each course at JNURAK comprises two components:

Internal Continuous Evaluation (ICE) – accounting for 40% of the total marks. ICE may include assignments, projects, presentations, seminars, practical work, class tests, attendance, and a mid-semester examination.
Semester-End Examination (SEE) – accounting for 60% of the total marks. This examination is conducted under the supervision of the Controller of Examinations.

To pass a course, a student must obtain a minimum of 35% in the theory component and 50% in the practical component, separately in both ICE and SEE. Failure to meet these thresholds in either component will result in a backlog, which must be cleared as per University regulations.

2 Examination Conduct

Arrive at the examination hall at least 15 minutes before the start time; late entry beyond 15 minutes is not allowed.
Do not leave the hall within the first hour of the examination.
Bring only permitted items (pens, pencils, simple calculators); electronic devices and notes are strictly prohibited.
Mobile phones must be switched off and not kept on the person.
Any form of cheating, collusion, or impersonation will lead to immediate expulsion from the examination and may result in suspension or expulsion from the University.

3 Absence and Re-examination

Students are required to maintain 75% attendance in all classes to become eligible for appearing in examinations. Failing this, they may not be allowed to appear in class tests, mid-term examinations, or semester-end examinations (both theory and practical), which may adversely affect their internal and external assessments.

Monthly attendance reports for each paper are displayed on the notice board before the mid-semester and semester-end examinations. Leave will be granted only if the student is regular and has more than 50% attendance.
