NPTEL: Latest update on Exams for Jan 2020 semester
Dear learner,
Hope you are safe and doing fine in the current situation.
This is with regard to the Jan-Apr 2020 NPTEL exams. Based on the feedback received the last couple of days from several stakeholders such as learners, colleges, etc, we have decided on the following:
Cancelling the exams scheduled for 23/24/25 June through TCS
The exams scheduled on 23/24/25 June, stand cancelled and the choices learners had opted for - In person exams or Refund, stand cancelled.
1. Attested Assignment Score sheet: For ALL exam registered candidates:
We will issue an attested assignment score sheet letter, regardless of your assignment score - which can be used as appropriate.
2. Modified Pass certificate: Based on Average Assignment score
We will calculate the Average Assignment score as follows:
Average of the best 3/6/8 assignments for courses of duration 4/8/12 weeks (or as announced apriori in the course in case of changes)
If this score >= 40/100 (which is also one condition for certificate eligibility), we will issue a modified Pass certificate.
If this score <40/100, this certificate will not be issued.
This certificate will not be counted towards the Domain certification as a completed course. Similarly, we will not be issuing an AICTE-NPTEL FDP certificate also based on this.
3. A generic letter from our side - request to College authorities to accept this as per their requirement will be put up on nptel.ac.in, can be downloaded and used We will put up a pdf in which we will explain the assignment score sheet and the Pass certificate and request them to accept and process further. We will also independently approach the ministry, AICTE and UGC to convey this new process for Jan 2020 semester to all universities.
Regarding the conduct of exams in future:
Independent of the Pass certificate and the Attested assignment score sheet mentioned above, in order to plan for a possible exam sometime in the future, we will share another form after the above activities are completed, with 2 choices:
a. Cancel and refund - Those who are very sure that they would not want to appear for regular proctored NPTEL exams and want a refund - can choose this. We will refund the money. We may not be able to open registrations again in this case if you wish to appear for it later.
b. NPTEL can retain fees for exams whenever organized for Jan 2020 courses -Those who would like to wait and take the exam with us - whenever we conduct it - can opt for this choice and we will keep the fees with us. Writing this and passing as per the certification criteria laid down will get them the regular NPTEL certificate. This will alone be counted towards the Domain certificate and issue of the FDP certificate.
The mode of conducting the exams, date of the exams, etc - we will inform as the situation evolves.
UPDATE ABOUT NPTEL JAN-APR 2020 EXAMS
Dear Learner,
This announcement is only for those who registered for final exam.
NPTEL Committee has decided to discontinue the Online Remote Proctored Exam Option.
Hence, you now have to choose between the following 2 options.
OPTION 1: IN PERSON PROCTORED EXAM AT FIXED EXAM CENTRES
We will be conducting exams with TCS iON (like we normally do) for which you have to appear in person at the designated exam centre in the city chosen by you.
The current exam dates fixed for this are:
Exams scheduled on the below date | Rescheduled - New Date |
March 29, 2020 | June 23, 2020 |
April 25, 2020 | June 24, 2020 |
April 26, 2020 | June 25, 2020 |
Important:
The above is subject to Government restrictions prevalent in various states at that point in time.
If you choose this option, the responsibility to reach the centre lies with you.
If the exams do get postponed due to unavoidable circumstances, exams may be conducted in August 2020 or maybe even as late as in October 2020.
If you choose to write the exam through this option and the exam is conducted by us in a particular city and you miss it, refund will NOT be possible as all arrangements would have been made with the vendor for the same and hence payment made to the vendor.
If you do pass the course as per the criteria mentioned, certificate will be the same as we normally give.
We will ensure you will be able to write the exams you have registered for without a clash in slots.
NPTEL, along with the exam partner, will make sure that exams are conducted by following appropriate social distancing norms and hygiene rules as required in the current situation.
We will try and ensure conduct of exam in the cities given in the list, but if in case for any unforeseen reason, we are unable to conduct the exam in the city chosen by you, we will refund 80% of the exam fee. In this case, you will not get the certificate from us.
Same final score calculation and pass criteria as mentioned in the Course introduction page will be applied and NPTEL certificates will be given as per that.
Exam fees will not be refunded if you select this option and later do not/cannot take the exam.
In the link given below, you may choose exam cities where you prefer to write exams.
----------------------------------
OPTION 2: CANCEL EXAM AND TAKE A REFUND
NPTEL certificate will NOT be issued in this case and you will only get an attested assignment score sheet. We will create and share a letter stating the Assignment scores obtained in the course, by the end of June, 2020.
We will refund 80% of the exam fees you had paid, with 20% retained by NPTEL towards admin costs. Refund will be initiated only after exams are concluded (after June 25).
THOSE WHO DO NOT FILL THIS FORM
By default, your choice will be taken as: CANCEL AND REFUND
LAST DATE TO FILL THIS FORM: JUNE 7, 2020 - 5PM
