What are the average marks/percentages scored by BTech students at various UPTU/AKTU colleges?
The average percentage scored by most BTech students at AKTU/UPTU colleges is 65-70%. This can be obtained with minimal effort as marks are literally distributed here. The internal marks depend on the student's image and not his performance.
Most of the heads of Departments are just puppets controlled by management. The faculty here is usually from a C-grade engineering college. Also, the lowest form of practice here is to earn more money through evaluation. This dishonesty on the part of the faculty produces disqualified engineers. The Centre Superintendent does not care about checking the eligibility of a faculty.
So you don’t actually need to worry about average marks because marks are awarded for free at AKTU/UPTU colleges.
What are the attendance criteria for a B.Tech in AKTU?
I have a few friends who graduated from AKTU. According to them, the official attendance criteria are 75%. However, it is not strictly followed in every college. The attendance criteria vary depending on the college as well as your department. Some departments are more flexible regarding the attendance criteria while the others are strict.
I even know people who were allowed to give examinations even with 25% attendance, so it entirely depends on college and departments. However, to be safe try to maintain at least 60% attendance.
Will marks increase if I applied for challenge evaluation in AKTU?
The simple answer to this question is yes, your marks are likely to improve if you apply for challenge evaluation in AKTU.
This answer is based on the experience of my brother who got a back in of the subjects. Initially, he thought of applying for challenge evaluation, but later changed his mind and went for carryover paper (INR 1000). But unfortunately, he got back into the same situation again. This disheartened him and he decided to apply for challenge evaluation (INR 2500) in AKTU. He was able to clear his back by gaining marks through challenge evaluation. This incident concluded the following possibilities:
-
The professors conduct wrong evaluation
-
Professors intentionally give a lot of backlogs in order to earn money through challenge evaluation.
So don’t waste your money on carryover paper. Simply apply for evaluation.
Is there any fee concession for reserved category student in UPSEE/AKTU?
In UPSEE and AKTU, reserved category students are given concessions on college fees in terms of scholarships and fee waivers by UP Govt. If you get a seat under the tuition fee waiver scheme, you won’t need to pay the tuition fee. However, you need to pay other institute fees.
There are also scholarships for students with a family income of less than INR 2 lakhs per annum.
What is the difference between AKTU and UPSEE?
AKTU is a public university under the umbrella of Uttar Pradesh government. It comprises more than 800 colleges and is among the largest technical universities in Asia.
Whereas UPSEE or Uttar Pradesh State Entrance Examination is a state level entrance examination. This exam opens gates for admission at government aided as well as private unaided institutes that are affiliated to UPTU.

Apart from this exam enables you to secure admissions in post graduate dual degree courses such as MBA and MCA.
How do I write an answer sheet in AKTU?
The best way to write an answer sheet in AKTU is to start from the section that covers maximum marks and go in descending order. The proper way to attempt every section that will give you maximum marks is mentioned below.
Section A (50 marks)
This section requires the most attention as it covers the maximum marks. Use the format-
-
Introduction
-
Main point
-
Diagrams
-
Footnote
-
Flowcharts
This will get you maximum marks.
Section B (30 marks) – Summarise your answers and write lesser details as compared to the previous section. Follow the same format though.
Section C (20 marks) – It’s like you now have only 30 minutes left to attempt this section. Try your best to attempt all the questions. Write only 2-3 lines with no details. If you don’t know the answer to a question, make a related flowchart or diagram and you will get marks.
Following this technique will definitely fetch you good marks especially if you have attempted sections A and B fairly well.
Which are the best colleges under AKTU?
Almost every college affiliated with AKTU is good but the KCC Institute of Technology and Management tops the list. Approved by the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE), KCC has ranked 2nd in terms of faculty. It has also ranked 7th in the best private engineering college in North India.
The following points will tell you why KCC is indeed the best college under AKTU.
-
Placements: KCC Institute has the best placement drives. The best part is the pre-placement training and the mock interviews. The combination of both ensures the placement of every student. Students last year got placed in companies such as Extramarks, BYJUs, QA Infotech, Dell, Infosys, etc.

What are the highest marks obtained by a student in clearing the back paper in AKTU (UPTU)?
As far as the checking of back/carry over papers is concerned, there is no major difference between that of regular papers. It is just a myth that lesser marks are given in back papers than regular ones. In fact, there are many cases where the students scored higher marks on back papers in comparison to their regular ones.
There are some tips you can make use of to get the best out of back papers:
-
For theoretical answers always begin with a heading and definition. Proceed with answering the question in points (especially 10 marks questions)
-
Don't forget to include neat diagrams wherever necessary
-
Don't write extraordinarily long answers and refrain from including irrelevant information.
-
Done leave any questions unanswered. Write whatever little knowledge you have related to the question. You might get 2 or 3 marks for this.
-
If you are unable to go through the entire syllabus, make sure you study the previous 5 years' papers deeply. Almost 50% of the paper is from repeated questions.
The key is to input maximum effort. Start studying at least 10 days prior to your exams to get good results.
When will AKTU Special Carry Over results be declared?
Like every year, this year also the university conducted the carry exam for the students. The carryover examination was arranged by the university recently for 1/ 2/ 3/ 4/ 5/ 6/ 7/ 8 semesters. The university hasn’t released the result of the carryover exam yet. Keep checking the AKTUs official website to get updated on the same.
