Why is IGNOUs paper checking so poor? Are they just playing with the students' futures?
Yes. The IGNOU marking system is very poor, and you must have a lot of patience if you are pursuing any degree from IGNOU. If you fail to submit your assignment grades, your results will be delayed for several months.
IGNOU is certainly playing with students' careers because they are so unconcerned about their grades and future. They are unconcerned about how and what is written on the answer sheets. They only postpone things and do not address the issue.

What is the passing marks out of 50 in IGNOU?
IGNOU's evaluation system is also distinct from that of traditional universities. IGNOU has a multi-tiered evaluation system.
1. Exercises in self-assessment within each unit of study.
2. Continuous evaluation primarily through tutor-marked assignments, practical assignments, and seminar/workshop/extended contact programmes.
3. The end-of-term exams
4. Work on a project
The evaluation of learners is based on the various instructional activities that they engage in. To complete an academic programme, a learner must write assignment responses before taking term-end exams on a regular basis. A learner must submit TMA responses to the Coordinator of the Study Centre to which he or she is assigned.
A learner should keep duplicate copies of TMA assignment responses that may be required to be produced on demand at the Student Evaluation Division. In June and December, term-end examinations are held at various examination centres throughout the country and abroad.
IGNOU: How long does it take for TEE results to come out?
At IGNOU, results are announced at fixed times for every program. The usual range of time is 1-3 months. IGNOU states the result declaration is 45 days from the end of exams. But most of the time, it's 60-65 days. The maximum time period is 3 months.
Use the link for the IGNOUs result page to keep a track of your result.It is possible that your result has been declared but not updated on the IGNOU website. This is because they update at regular intervals of time. You will have to check the result daily and wait patiently.
IGNOU also has a provision for on-demand results. You can get the results earlier than the official declaration. A certain amount of fee is applicable for the same.
How do I get good marks in IGNOU assignment?
Download previous 3-5 years' question papers from the IGNOU website, depending on your time constraints. Look for answers to these questions in the IGNOU material. It is pointless to recommend guides because the majority of their answers do not adhere to the topic or syllabus.
Make a list of the most important points. Remember to take notes on the keywords. Highlighting these keywords while writing the exam will give the examiner the impression that you have a good understanding of the question.
Depending on the question, try to include some diagrams or maps. It will undoubtedly give you an advantage. Because you have not read the entire material, you may find it difficult to understand at times. In that case, Google the keywords or the context to get a good idea of what the problem is.
Prepare each previous question paper in this manner and revise it at least twice. Examine your assignment question as well.
What happens if a UFM is showing on an AKTU result?
UFM or Unfair Means is when you have tried to use unfair means such as chits, gadgets, or some other mode to score marks in a particular subject. Such a situation can result in many scenarios:
-
The result will be paused and postponed till the administration takes an action to solve the matter.
-
Contact your Institute Director. He will ask you to write a letter detailing your viewpoint regarding the offense that has been made against you.
-
You will write a letter to the Examination Controller of AKTU and tell him why you were caught using unfair means. Send the printout of your semester results along with this letter.
-
The entire situation will be closely investigated by the UFM committee of AKTU.
-
There will be two results to their verdict. Either you are guilty of UFM during exams or you are innocent and have been falsely accused through some conspiracy.
While you apply for this process there are some very important points you need to consider:
-
Apologize to the committee and say you won’t repeat the mistake. If you say you are innocent, you can get Carry Over(CP) in 4 subjects. This will impact your result very poorly.
-
Don't try to use any source of AKTU staff or any employee to recommend you for pardoning from the UFM case. This might in turn harm the entire situation. Handle the situation according to the process.
Here is a video comprising complete information about a UFM in AKTU
The entire process of resolution of UFM cases is tiring and lengthy and will wear you out in the end. Stay positive and strong throughout the process and wait for the results patiently.
Do marks really increase in the IGNOU revaluation?
If you are confident that you have written well and deserve more than the marks you have received, then go ahead and request revaluation.
Even if you're not sure, take the plunge. It will not cause you any harm. The best of the two marks, that is, before and after the revaluation, will be considered, so there is no need to worry. You simply need to believe in yourself and go for it if you believe that the grades you received are inadequate and should be increased.
What is the purpose of a study center/regional center in IGNOU?
Every state in India may have at least one IGNOU regional centre. Some people may have multiples. Kerala, for example, has two.
Regional centres provide admission, textbooks, and results, among other things.
Some courses are available for study in regional centres, but they are uncommon. Study centres are typically used for classes as well as the administration of theory and practical exams.
There are numerous IGNOU study centres located throughout the state and the country. Typically, each district in a state has at least one IGNOU study centre. However, this is conditional on the state. One issue is that not all study centres offer all IGNOU courses.
It is possible that the course you want to study is not available at your nearest study centre. As a result, you must choose a study centre based on your desired course. This is due to the fact that a course that requires practical classes requires a study centre with computer facilities, and so on.
You can attend classes at the study centre, and before the exams, the study centre sends all of your information to the regional centre, such as your attendance, assignment submission, and so on. The regional centre then combines all of this information with your term-end exam results to produce a final result.
What is your opinion about the Anna University results?
The general opinion regarding the results of Anna University is don’t expect anything. There is no proper strategy behind their checking. There is a very poorly organized and careless system for the same. Hundreds of students complain about their shocking marks and final retort to revaluation. The cost of revaluation is extremely high. It seems that it’s the university’s strategy to earn money.
The results at Anna University are always unsatisfactory and many students apply for revaluation every year.
Can I challenge the BHU result?
Yes, you may challenge the BHU result. But the chances that you will face such a situation are very low. This is because from the conducting of exams to the results everything is handled by an independent department. This department works under the supervision of the Vice-Chancellor and other experienced officers. So the chances of an error are low.
Still you are always open to challenge the BHU result. The authorities will surely respond for the same.
