Study In Pakistan

 

Examination System

Two types of examination systems exist in the country:

  1. Annual System

  2. Semester System

Annual System

Some of the Public Sector Universities employ annual system. In annual system students have to study seven or sometimes more subjects in one year.  Students have to attend the classes for whole of the year and are evaluated at the end of the academic year. Assignments and tests taken during whole of the year do not affect your final evaluation. You will be given marks or grades on the basis of the only and final evaluation at the end of each academic year.

Semester System

Most of the Public Sector and all of the Private sector Universities employ semester system, a system of continual assessment and assigning grades for each course taken.  Almost everything you do for a class will influence your final grade. Examinations and tests, essays or written assignments, laboratory reports, laboratory or studio work, class attendance, and class participation may all be used to determine your final grade. This means it is essential to keep up with the reading and course work and to attend classes on a regular basis.
