Re-Exam on Failure

The normal procedure in case of all the three courses is that the student has to reappear in all the papers of a particular group/stage in which he/she has not qualified.

However a student may be exempt from appearing in one or more papers of a module in the subsequent examinations, on account of having scored high marks (more than 60%) in the examination in which he/she was declared failed.

One should note that a student may also be exempt from appearing in one or more papers of a module on account of having specified academic qualifications.

Exemptions on Getting High Marks

A candidate who obtains more than 60% of marks in any paper or papers and a minimum of 25% of marks in all the remaining papers of that module in which he has appeared shall be exempted from appearing in that paper in the subsequent examinations.

The candidate is required to obtain a minimum of 40% in each paper and an aggregate of 50% in the total of the remaining subjects of the module in the subsequent examinations.

Example

An Attempt

Say a student has obtained the following marks in an examination

I - 65, II – 28; Total = 93. [Aggregate < 50% → Fail]

Since the student has got marks 93; 60% in Paper I and has also got the minimum required in other papers i.e. ≥ 25% in Papers II, he/she will be exempted from appearing in Paper I in the subsequent examinations.

In the next exam the candidate is required to appear only paper II and get a minimum of 40% and aggregate of 50% (total of 50) in paper II.

Claiming and Foregoing Exemptions

Claiming Exemptions

Exemptions on account of Possessing other Qualifications

The student has to make specific mention of the same at the time of registration and claim exemption.

The requisite fee for the same should also be paid in addition to the regular registration fee.

A candidate who is eligible for exemption by the virtue of possessing the relevant qualifications should pay an exemption fee of Rs. 100 per paper in which exemption is being claimed and make an application on or before the last date for submission of enrolment application for the particular examination.

Attested copy of the relevant qualification should also be attached with the application for claiming exemption.

The examination fee for a module should however be paid in full. There is no reduction in the examination fee for the papers in which the student has been exempted.

Exemptions on Getting High Marks

To claim exemption on account of scoring high marks, a student has to mention the same in the application for examination at the time of making the application for the subsequent exams.

Since there is no reduction in fee for exempted subjects either on account of having other qualifications or on account of having scored high marks in prior examinations, care should be taken to ensure that the relevant columns are properly filled in the examination application.

Foregoing Exemptions

A student if he so desires can forego the exemption he has in a subject by mentioning the same in the application for examination, i.e. by ignoring the column where the details relevant to claiming exemptions are to be filled.

The benefit once foregone cannot be availed in the subsequent attempts.

Exemptions from One or More Papers based on other Qualifications Held

Exemption from Professional Programme

No one is exempt from studying all the papers at this level i.e. there is no qualification which would enable a student from bypassing the Executive Programme level and going to the Professional Programme level directly.
