TIPS FOR ANNA UNIVERSITY FIRST YEAR STUDENTS

TIPS FOR ANNA UNIVERSITY FIRST YEAR STUDENTS

HI GUYS EXAMS ARE VERY NEAR TO YOU AND MANY ASKED ME HOW TO GET SCORE IN ALL SUBJECTS AND SOME ASKED HOW TO GET PASS EASILY AND THE CRITERIA OF PASSING.

FIRST I AM GOING TO TELL YOU WHAT IS THE PASS MARK AND HOW IT IS GIVEN

TO PASS IN A SUBJECT YOU NEED TO GET 50 . MANY OF YOU MAY THINK THAT WITHOUT PERFORMING WELL IN INTERNAL TESTS AND GETTING 50 IN SEMESTER EXAM IS ENOUGH BUT IT IS NOT TRUE. YOUR SEMESTER MARKS WHICH YOU WRIGHT FOR 100 MARKS WILL BE CONVERTED FOR 80. FOR EXAMPLE IF YOU GET 100 IN SEMESTER EXAM AND 0 IN INTERNAL MEANS THEN YOUR TOTAL MARKS WILL BE 80 ONLY.

YOUR TOTAL MARKS= (EXTERNAL MARK (OUT OF 100) * 0.8 ) + INTERNAL MARKS

INTERNAL MARKS NOT ONLY MAKES YOU TO GET HIGH SCORE BUT ALSO HELP YOU TO PASS EASILY EVEN IN A TOUGH SUBJECT.

EXAMPLE : YOUR INTERNAL MARK IS 20 (OUT OF 20)

THEN YOU NEED TO TAKE ONLY 38 (OUT OF 100) IN YOUR EXTERNAL EXAM

WHICH IS THEN CONVERTED FOR 80 IT WILL BECOME 38*0.8=30

SO, YOUR TOTAL MARKS = 30+20 = 50 YOU ARE PASS CONGRATS!!!

THIS ARTICLE IS FOR THOSE WHO FEEL LITTLE DIFFICULT TO STUDY.

1. BELIEVE IN YOU. YOU WILL PASS DEFINITELY
2. FOR PASSING YOU NEED TO DO SOMETHING.WHAT TO DO CUT YOUR PHONES, TV, ETC., WHILE STUDYING
3. TRY TO COVER ATLEAST 3 UNITS IN EACH SUBJECT FULLY (YOU CAN OMIT ONLY ONE TOPIC FROM EACH UNIT WHICH YOU FIND DIFFICULT EVEN IF COME YOU CAN LEAVE IT IN CHOICE)
4. FIRST DOWNLOAD THE SYLLABUS FOR ALL SUBJECTS.
5. DONT STUDY BOOK FULLY PLEASE REFER SYLLABUS BEFORE STUDYING
6. AFTER STUDYING 3 UNITS JUST STUDY THE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS FROM THE REMAINING 2 UNITS.
7. EVEN IF THE QUESTION PAPER IS TOO TOUGH DONT LOOSE YOUR HOPE JUST WRITE WHATEVER YOU KNOW.
8. TRY TO FINISH THE 42 PAGES
9. WRITE NEATLY ATLEAST FIRST TWO BIG QUESTIONS

CONGRATS PLEASE GO AND STUDY NOW....IF YOU FEEL THIS ARTICLE USEFUL PLEASE LIKE AS ON FACEBOOK AND SHARE TO YOUR FRIENDS TOOO
