Examination Pattern
The assessment evaluation system comprises two types, i.e., internal assessments and end-term assessments. The internal assessments include different assignments, quizzes, and online discussions, which enhance the learning ability of the students. End-term examinations are conducted at the end of each semester and are weighted for significant contribution to the assessment. These examinations, usually online, are in the form of MCQs and short- and long-answer questions and are very important with respect to the entire evaluation system. Thus, students will be evaluated at each of the stages through internal evaluations and end-term examinations, where internal evaluations will help with the continuous assessment while end-term examinations assess for an overall understanding of the course content. IMT CDL uses online proctoring for all examinations to safeguard the integrity of the examination process. This also allows students to take examinations from anywhere in a fair manner. The grading system, therefore, also encompasses a comprehensive evaluation of students' performance through internal assessments and end-term examinations by issuing grades based on the accumulated performance of the student throughout the program.
