As we approach the academic year of 2025, Guru Nanak Dev University (GNDU) has announced several significant updates regarding the upcoming examinations. Here’s a summary of the latest news, essential dates, and helpful resources for students:
Date: Exams start on January 15, 2025.
GNDU has released the examination schedule aiming to reduce the academic load by spacing out the exams over a longer period, allowing students ample time for preparation.
In an effort to embrace digitalization, GNDU will conduct all undergraduate and postgraduate exams online. This initiative promises to streamline the examination process and provide students with immediate results.
Starting next academic year, students who undertake research projects during exam preparation will earn additional credits. This initiative encourages practical learning and enhances the research capabilities of students.
GNDU has introduced a revamped exam pattern that includes multiple-choice questions (MCQs), short answer questions, and case studies. This change aims to better assess students' understanding and application of knowledge.
Recently, a group of students protested against the scheduling of exams during the festive season, highlighting concerns over inadequate preparation time and the need for relaxation during this period.
All exam results will now be declared online, ensuring transparency and immediate access for students. Detailed mark sheets and performance analysis will also be available.
To assist students in their exam preparation, GNDU will conduct workshops focusing on exam strategies, stress management, and time management techniques.
New Deadline: January 5, 2025
GNDU has extended the exam registration deadline, providing students with additional time to prepare their documents and fees.
To maintain the integrity of the examination process, GNDU will implement AI-based proctoring for all online exams starting from the next session, preventing cheating and ensuring fair assessments.
GNDU has introduced a policy allowing students to retake exams if they do not achieve the required marks, with a limit of two attempts per course. This policy is designed to promote learning rather than merely passing.
As the exam dates approach, it’s crucial for students to stay prepared and updated. Make sure to mark your calendars for important deadlines and take advantage of the resources offered by GNDU. Remember, staying informed is the key to success!
