AKTU offers an automated grace marking system. You don’t have to apply for grace marks the university will handle automatically.
Some new provisions that have been added recently regarding grace marks are:
A total of 40 marks can be used in the course of 4 years of B.Tech..
Maximum 15 grace marks can be used to clear a particular subject and for this you should have scored at least 15% marks in that subject.
Your result will mention PWG (Pass With Grace).
For example if you have scored 15 out of 100, you will be granted 15 marks automatically and clear the exam. There is no need to apply for grace marks.
Yes, the FX-100MS calculator is allowed in the AKTU exams. But no other type of calculator is allowed.
The purpose of FW or Fee-Waiver seats is to let financially weak people pursue their dreams. AKTU has 4-5 seats for the same in every branch of engineering colleges.
The average fee of an AKTU-affiliated engineering college is around INR 1,35,000. This includes Exam fees, Training & Placement, Degree, Student Development services, etc. But for a student opting for a Fee-Waiver seat, the complete amount of INR 90,000 (as tuition fees) will be waived. This amount will be paid by the government.
The remaining fee that needs to be paid by an FW student is around 20-30k per year. Your college will let you know the exact amount as it varies from college to college.
The refund process at AKTU Lucknow starts after the procedure of admissions has been completed. So you need to check the last date of admission of your respective course from the official website.
You may also call the help desk of UPSEE at 1800 180 0161(Toll Free).
If your transaction is broken due to any reason, you won’t be able to proceed with choice filling. However, the amount debited against the failed transactions, shall be automatically refunded by the Bank after Reconciliation to your account.
Students should try to use debit/credit card mode of payments to allow easy refunds.
The procedure to get the provisional certificate from AKTU is very simple. Just follow these steps:
Visit the university office in Lucknow
Fill a form for the same along with the final year mark sheet and DD of INR150.
Within 15-20 min, your request will be proceeded and your provisional certificate will be handed over.
Applications are not accepted after 1 so try to reach before that. DD can be made from the bank present inside the campus.
No, you only get a total of 5 grace marks provided that your internal marks are 30 out of 50.
So for instance you scored 30 out of 50 in internals,
And 25 out of 100 in externals,
Then 5 grace marks will be given and you will be cleared in that semester.
Both the Universities -IPU OR AKTU are average universities so deciding which brand is better is a bit difficult. Still from basic comparison we can say that IPU is better than AKTU. Some strong points to prove this have been mentioned below:
Being Delhi based, IPU still has better management and organisation than Uttar Pradesh based AKTU.
AKTU engineering colleges are on the verge of collapse due to which students are now being admitted on the basis of donations or direct admissions. IPU does not accept donations.
Since the number of colleges under AKTU are more than that of IPU, placement factor is affected. IPU is better in this aspect than AKTU. Better opportunities and companies are offered here in comparison to AKTU.
AKTU is witnessing a decline in standards whereas IPU is a bit more stable in its placement and evaluation.
So between the two options, IPU is a better option. It has more to offer than any AKTU college can offer. But HBTI is exception as it has now separated from AKTU and it’s an excellent college.
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.
Final Year Back Rules are as follows.
Now, these are a few year-back rules in AKTU which you should keep in mind.
I have personally experienced and also heard from many that the checking pattern in AKTU of semester exams is quite lenient. All you need to do is
Attempt all answers
Write as lengthy answers as you can
These two strategies will help you score good marks. If you come across a question you don’t know the answer to, simply write anything remotely related to the question and you will score some marks. The general idea is the length of the answers over the content. So fill as many sheets as you can and you are good to go.
