Eight years after scrapping the internal evaluation system for its Bachelors of Commerce (BCom), Science (BSc) and Arts (BA) courses, the University of Mumbai (MU) is reintroducing it in the upcoming 2024-'25 academic year. The varsity is also bringing back the 60:40 assessment pattern (60 per cent weight-age for the semesterend theoretical test and 40 per cent for continuous or internal evaluation), a decade after it was replaced with the 75:25 scheme.
The overhaul of the assessment system, which is part of the MU's National Education Policy (NEP) rollout, was conveyed to the affiliated colleges in a circular issued last month, though the changes had already been approved last year by the varsity's academic and management councils.
According to the circular, the internal assessment will account for 40 per cent and 50 per cent of examination scores of all undergraduate (UG) and post-graduate (PG) programmes, while the remainder of the grade will depend on students' performance in the written exam at the end of the term. Students will, however, have to clear both type of tests individually, as has been the norm.
