The degree college the way we assumed to be cool and relaxing time, after our 12th boards was all come to our shock when we actually started our college and we had our orientation program wherein most of dreams got shattered to bunk and have fun for 3 years. As we came to know we had internals as well externals for 40 and 60 marks approximately. The entire time period was as fast as a blink of the eye wherein I found myself studying every 15 days either for the internals or externals. Wasn’t it the same for most of us? If not studying then completing our assignments in order to get those 40 marks of internals (grins)
It was just some time that we digested these truths of degree college that in our third year that is in 2014 we got another shock that is now we have internals only of 25 and externals of 75 which first in place became a fear for or all of us. The 60 marks were no easy for students that more 15 marks were added to the externals. Students those who appeared for the new marking system had a bad experience and had their opinion of not having this marking system. Let us see what those are.
- Firstly most of the questions became 15 marks which required us to write 4 sides and it wasn’t possible to put up per answer as per requirement in the given time.
- The 75 marking system requires 3 hours wherein we are given only two and half hours
- Moreover if you are appearing for university exams that is if you are third year student it is very difficult to judge how you are marked on the new pattern as ours is the first batch appearing for it (Student’s opinion)
- It was easy coring the internals of 40 marks due to assignments and projects wherein now you have the option only of 25 marks
- The 60 marks externals were perfect as the marks per question and time given was proper.
Â
On the part of the students it was write as the new marking system is way too difficult when it comes to writing and an extra question after answering the important ones by the end is all draining and many of them can’t even complete the paper and this was one of them. If this, marking system ahs to continue then there has to be alteration in the time for sure or else the university should go back to the previous pattern that is 60:40 which was the best.
