Regarding Assignments 1 - Fill in the Blanks

Dear Learners

It was observed that many of you reported the problem with the evaluation of Assignment No. 1 which was system evaluated on 14th August 2019.

These problems were pertaining to one particular section of the questions i.e. ‘Fill in the Blanks’ type. Multiple expressions of the correct answer/option were fed by the candidates, which the system is not evaluating.

So, now it has been decided that, the questions of ‘Fill in the Blanks’ type will not be the part of evaluation in already published assignments 1, 2 and 3. Now the evaluation will be out of only 20 MCQs and already evaluated Assignment 1 will be re-evaluated accordingly.

Upcoming assignment 4 will consist of only 20 MCQs.

Kindly note that now each assignment is having the weightage of 20 marks each instead of earlier decided 25 marks each.
