The final year projects in the MAKAUT are done either in groups of 5 students or fewer each. Some students prefer doing their projects alone to impress the invigilators and end up in books. Usually, students doing their projects alone get better grades than those doing them in groups.
Projects done in a group include maximum efforts of only one or two students while the rest of the members just while away their time and make no major contributions. Some of the professors are well aware of this practice and thus give low grades to students involved in group projects while some professors give good grades nevertheless.
In my opinion, if you genuinely want to learn while making the project, do it alone. This will be the first project you will be working on alone and will impact your degree too.
