CS - Professional Programme : Examinations
When are they Conducted?
The main/final examinations for the course are conducted twice every year generally on specified dates which do not change except under extraordinary circumstances.
June Examination
First Week of June [2nd to 7th — 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm]
December Examination
Last Week of December - [26th to 2nd Jan — 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm]
When can a Candidate Appear for his/her First Exam?
A students eligibility to appear at an examination is dependent on two factors.
- Date of registration and
- Obtaining the CC
A student to appear at a certain examination should have registered before the cut off date in relation to that examination and should have also obtained the CC by the time of making application for the examination.
- Before February 28th/29th can appear for four Modules - in the December Examination the same Year
[Register before 28th February 2010 to attempt - four modules in December 2010 Exam]
- Between March 1st to August 31st can appear for four Modules - in the June Examination Next Year
[Register between March 1st to August 31st 2010 to attempt - both Modules in June 2011 Exam]
- Before May 31st can appear for one or two Modules - in the December Examination the same year
[Register before 31st May 2010 to attempt – one or two Modules in December 2010 Exam]
- Before November 30th can appear for one or two Modules - in the June Examination Next Year
[Register before 30th November 2010 to attempt - one or two Modules in June 2011 Exam]
Being eligible for both modules implies that the student can attempt the first/second/both modules as per his/her choice. Where the student is eligible for attempting one module, he/she can choose any one of the two modules. However, he/she should be completing the coaching requirements for the module that he/she intends to attempt.
Which Module should a Student Appear in First ?
A student can appear in any one module or more modules provided he has the CC for them. The module in which he appears first is his choice and there is no rule that the first module should be attempted first.
However it should be clear that the candidate would be eligible to go for membership of the institution only on completing all the four modules i.e. the total Professional Programme level.
Medium for Writing the Examinations
Professional Programme level examinations can be written either in ENGLISH or HINDI medium. A student has to mention the preference of medium at the time of making the application for examination.
The option to answer papers in HIN DI should be exercised in total. Paper wise option is not available. The papers of a candidate who has not exercised his option to answer papers in Hindi, but answers them in Hindi, would not be valued.
In the absence of clear indication of preference at the time of making the application for examination, English will be taken as the preferred medium.
Maximum Number of Attempts
There is no specific mention regarding the maximum number of attempts allowed for a student at the Professional Programme Level.
There is no expiry period for the Coaching Completion Certificate (CC) also.
However, the student whose registration has been cancelled on account of the expiry of the 5 year period subsequent to registration will not be permitted to attempt the examinations until he/she gets their registration revalidated by de novo registration.
Failing to get through within the maximum limit
If a candidates chances of making an attempt at the examination are exhausted on account of the registration getting expired the candidate has to get his/her registration renewed. Renewing the registration would put him/her in the same state as if his/her registration were valid and in force.
