Mumbai University - Submission, Practical and Internal KTs

Please Don't Be Them

What are Submissions and why are they so important?

In Mumbai University Your Term Work File is worth 25 marks and is the one place your teacher has the most control over you.

According to the New Rules, the correction of the file is divided into 3 sections:
  • 3 Marks for Punctuality (i.e. how punctual you were with your submissions).
  • 3 Marks for Content (i.e. what you have filled your assignment with, or like Apsara says “extra marks for good handwriting”).
  • 4 Marks for Knowledge (Yeh 🔔 Hota Hai, this also Usually depends on how much the professor likes your face or Kitna Tuhmne Professor ki 👅 Hai).
Submission are important cause it’s one of the biggest reasons people get a Drop. Taking Unnecessary Panga with a teacher or just Lack of Attendance can cause the Teacher to not accept your Term Work. This Situation is called a Null and Void and results in a Drop. 

 The teacher will mostly call your parents and tumhaari aur tumhare parents ki izzat ki maa *******. It's better to be regular in your submission to avoid this situation.

What are the Different Internal Exams?

Mumbai University Colleges have 2 Unit tests Exams, each Worth 20 marks. While marking you an average of these 2 midterms exams is considered.

To clear your Internal Exam, you need to score a minimum average of 8 Marks. The average of 8 can be achieved in multiple ways
Test 1: 16                                                              Test 1: 8
Test 2: 0                                                                Test 2: 8
Average: 8                                                            Average: 8

Engineering is a conundrum of multiple subjects. Not all to your liking and say you find yourself stuck with a subject you are having nightmares of clearing getting a total of 14.5/40 is what you should aim for, it comes to an average of 7.25 which is rounded off to 8 (I twice have managed to reach this golden number and would advise you to NOT RELY ON IT FOR EVERY EXAM). Study and clear your internals they are not as hard as you think they are.

Practical Exam and Viva. Your practical exam is worth 15 marks and Viva worth 10 marks which add up to 25 marks.

To clear your practical, you need to score 10 marks out of 25 in total.

What Is an Internal KT?

The Situation where you fail to:
  • Score an average of 8 marks in your Units
  • Collectively score above 10 marks in your Viva + Practical.
Is called an Internal KT.

What to do if I have an Internal KT?

If you have an Internal KT, you must give it next semester.
Like External KTs the catch is that you can carry any amount of KTs within an Academic Year but to be promoted to the next academic year you need to clear enough exams to be within the Number of KTs allowed.
Internal Exams are not such big of a deal, Teachers usually give marks liberally. 
In the case that you got one, requesting the teacher to pass you is one thing you should try. Try going to the teacher when you know it will just be the both of you. If you have written something in the paper, 1 and .5 marks per paper maybe are enough to save your internal KT.

Is there a way to clear my Internal KT without appearing for it?

Good News, Yes There is, but it's only applicable to a KT in your Units and not Practical Exams. 
To clear your Internal KT, The Total of the marks you received in your External and Internal should be 50.
Explaining it in Short,
Unit 1: 2 Marks
Unit 2: 5 Marks
Average: 3.5 = 4 Marks
Hence to clear your Internal you need 46 Marks In your External.

Passing your Internal KT through this method is only viable for the semester in which you have got the Internal KT. Say you get both an Internal and External in the same paper and don’t clear your Internal KT exam the following Sem this route shall not be an option to clear you Internal through your External KT.
