⚠ ️IMPORTANT ⚠️

Dear learners,

Hope the courses you have registered for are all going fine. Quiz 3 scores
will be released soon.

Here are some important changes in the program policies. Please do read
them carefully and make note of the same:

1. Change in the format of the final exam:

About the final exams, originally scheduled for March 13/14 as 2sessions
per day (each exam of duration 3hrs), many had expressed concerns about
appearing for exams on Saturday.

Taking this feedback into account, IITM Senate has approved the following
proposal for exams:

The final exam of 3hrs duration for each subject is being replaced by an
exam of 1.5hrs duration.

The exams for 2 subjects (English-1 and Maths-1) will be held in the
Forenoon of March 14, Sunday (9 am-12noon) and exams for the other 2
subjects (CT and Statistics-1) will be held in the Afternoon session of
March 14, Sunday (2 pm to 5 pm).

Hence Exams for all 4 subjects will be completed in a single day, March
14, in 2 sessions. There will be NO exam on March 13, Saturday.

Eligibility to write the end-term exam based on the average weekly
assignment score remains the same.

2. Change in weightage of Quiz and FInal exam scores:

Originally, it was proposed that the best 2 out of 3 quizzes would
contribute to 40% of the final score and the Final exam would contribute to
60% of the final score.

It is now changed to Total course score (T) = 50% of best 2 out of 3 quiz
scores (out of 100) + 50% of End term exam score (E)

For each subject, in whichever quizzes you have the highest scores, those
scores will be considered for this subject for calculation of Total course
score T.

Hence the quizzes from which the scores are considered can be different
for each subject too. (Many learners had this doubt - hope this is clear
now).

3. Criteria for passing the course:

A learner is deemed to have passed a course if Total Course Score (T) >=
50/100

The earlier condition of requiring to score more than 40/100 in End term
exam is removed. These criteria are the same for all learners participating
in the course.

4. Change in the calculation of course grade:

An absolute grading system will be followed as shown where the course
grade is dependent on the End term exam score E being >= 40 is removed. The
final course grade only depends on the Total course score of T.

IMPORTANT:

1. For all of you - the primary condition of attending one quiz at least
is automatically satisfied by having attended the qualifier exam (Quiz 1).

2. We will be considering the best 6 weekly assignment scores to calculate
the average, which if >= 40/100 will make you eligible to appear for the
End term exam of the course. This includes the 3 weekly online graded
assignments given during the qualifier month and those given between weeks
5 to 12 in the Jan/Feb 2021 term. If your average score is lesser than 40,
please do submit the upcoming assignments to better your score and qualify.

Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

Warm Regards,

IITM - Online Degree.

Dear learner

In the previously released Quiz 3 scores, partial marks for MSQ had not been updated.

Several learners pointed it out on receiving their response sheets. And we found this not done.

 

We have done it now and have reuploaded the scores. (It may have changed for some of you and may not have changed for some others, depending on the questions attempted by you).

Please check your student dashboard on (onlinedegree.iitm.ac.in) under the "My Current Courses" section for the updated scores.

Apologies for the inconvenience caused.

 

Thank You,

IITM - BSc Degree Team.

Dear Students,

We have republished the finalized Quiz 3 scores for the course Statistics I. Please check your student dashboard.

 

How do we calculate your scores?
1. Raw Scores which we receive from our exam partner are processed for partial marking after ignoring the removed questions, which then provides us with the modified scores.

 

2. Normalisation is carried out to equalize the marks scored by the learners across the 2 shifts and normalise across courses suitably.

 

Please note by normalizing the scores we either retain the scores achieved by the learners or increase it based on requirement.

 

We are republishing as an intermediate step of marks that had been published by mistake earlier.

 

Warm regards,

IITM Bsc degree team
