AHMEDABAD: Gujarat University has given its students the option to choose between online and in-person exams, the last date for which is February 10.
“So far, 33,000 candidates, or about half of the total number, have said they would prefer to take the exams online. This number is expected to go up over the next few days,” said a source in GU.
GU has decided to conduct exams for Semester One students both online and in-person (pen and paper) due to the pandemic. The university is yet to announce dates for in-person exams.
The exams will be held for undergraduate and postgraduate courses such as BA, BCom, BSc, BBA, BCA, integrated law, BEd, LLB, MA and MCom.
The university recently gave the option to all its students barring those that function under councils such as the Bar Council of India and the National Medical Commission. The university conducts exams for a total of 250 subjects in its undergraduate and postgraduate courses, and these are held through February, March and April.
Some 1.25 lakh students are to take these university examinations.
