Ques

What is the grading system in AKTU?

● Top Answer By Kritika Guha on 29 Aug 22

Ans
AKTU follows an absolute grading system in which each semester result is converted into Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA). The Yearly Grade Point Average (YGPA) is calculated each year. The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is calculated after the end semester of the program.  SGPA -  SGPA (Si) = (Ci * Gi)/Ci  It is the ratio of the product of the number of credits with the grade points scored by the students in all the courses taken by them and the sum of the courses undergone by them.  Ci is the number of credits of the ith course and Gi is the grade points scored by the student.  YGPA -  Yearly grade point average is calculated at the end of each year. YGPA =SGPA(odd)*Ci(odd)+SGPA(even)*Ci(even)/(Ci(odd)+Ci(even)) CGPA -  CGPA is calculated in the same way by taking into account all the courses taken by a student throughout the semesters of a particular program.  CGPA =(Ci*Si)/Ci Here, Ci is the total number of credits in the ith semester and Si is the SGPA of the ith semester.

Ques

What is the year back rule in AKTU 2021?

● Top Answer By Samriti Roy on 18 Oct 21

Ans
Well AKTU has changed the passing rules for students. The students have to score at least 50% credit marks including theory and practical exam marks. Before this rule, students had to score 60% credit separately in Theory Exam and Practical Exams. Now credit is something which you get after clearing the exams. Credits are given by combining the internal and external results. And passing the external exam is a must. If you have internal back but you score well in university exams and clear the subject then you will also earn credit.  AKTU Passing Rules: First/ Second/ Third Year Back Rule are as follows.  If you get 1000 marks but have 4 subjects back still you shall be promoted. If you have 1000 marks with 5 backs you fall under the year back situation. And if you score less than 1000 marks or have 4 subjects back then you are promoted but you have to cover 1000 marks in one year. Final Year Back Rules are as follows.  In the final year, you have to study in all 9 subjects and have to pass 6 subjects maximum.  But if you have more than 3 subjects back then you will fail the exam. Now, these are a few year-back rules in AKTU which you should keep in mind.

Ques

What are the passing criteria for in the AKTU semester?

● Top Answer By Shashank Gupta on 27 Feb 23

Ans
AKTU passing criteria in a semester is  30 out of 100 15 out of 50 This is only for the external exams.  For internal exams, you need to score more than 30 out of 50. If you happen to have a back in any subject of 100 marks or 50 marks then you will get grace marks of 10 and 5 respectively. However, this accounts for the whole year and not just a single semester.

Ques

Is scoring marks difficult in 1st year at AKTU UPTU?

● Top Answer By Jagruti Verma on 18 Aug 22

Ans
Scoring decent marks in 1st year at AKTU UPTU isn’t too difficult. Attending lectures regularly and studying a few hours each day can easily get you good grades.  The 1st year syllabus is almost the same for all branches. The subjects covered are related to basic engineering and aren’t too difficult. You will be studying basic, Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Computer, etc. Most of the topics, you would have covered in your 12th itself. Although the syllabus of maths will be slightly different.

Ques

What is the carryover examination process for pass out students at AKTU Does it take place semester wise?

● Top Answer By Ayush Dubey on 18 Oct 21

Ans
I have a friend from AKTU. He was able to give some information regarding this. According to him, pass-out students get special carryout papers for their first year back paper only. Recently AKTU decided to give 4 years to clear back papers to the students. So, you can clear the back paper even after your final year. You can also clear your back papers semester-wise.

Ques

What is your review of Dr A P J Abdul Kalam Technical University AKTU?

● Top Answer By Devesh Sinha on 14 Jul 22

Ans
Dr. A P J Abdul Kalam Technical University isn’t a good option for pursuing technical courses. The curriculum followed by the institute is outdated. You will only learn the theoretical aspects of engineering. It doesn’t offer the practical hands-on experience students require to excel in the technical field.  Most students usually get placed in the IT sector, irrespective of their branches. The highlights of recent AKTU placements show the average package offered by the institute to be around INR 2-3 LPA.

Ques

How can I remove a backlog in AKTU? Is there a marked over result if I cleared it?

● Top Answer By Tridha Banerjee on 24 Aug 22

Ans
If you have a backlog in a semester, you need to fill out a carryover form and retake the examination for that subject with your juniors. For odd semester subjects, you need to appear in the next odd semester and for even semester subjects, you need to appear in the next even semester.  After you clear the backlog, AKTU will issue a new marksheet. The final result will show pass.

Ques

Is it true that I have to submit my original mark sheets at the time of admission in UPSEE AKTU college?

● Top Answer By Raunak Sinha on 24 Aug 22

Ans
If you have your transfer certificate, you don’t need to submit your original marksheet. But you need to bring your marksheet during counseling for verification. If you don’t have your transfer certificate yet, you will need to submit your original marksheet. You can collect it once you submit your TC.
