Study materials, assignments & assessment
Find the right study materials
Search eGyanKosh by each paper code in your registration record. Read the programme guide first, then download the course blocks and any practical or project manuals. Keep each paper in a separate folder so your notes, assignments and revision material stay aligned.
Prepare assignments for your session
Download the official assignment question booklet for the correct programme, paper and admission session. Check the instructions on its cover, including submission route and validity. Write your own answers, keep a copy and retain submission proof. Follow your study centre’s current submission notice.
Examinations and passing requirements
Use the applicable programme guide for assessment weightage, minimum marks and separate requirements for assignments, theory, practicals and projects. Do not apply another programme’s passing rule automatically. Check official exam-form notices, the final date sheet and your hall ticket before attending an examination.
Practical and research components
Where your registered course list includes practical work, placement, internship, dissertation or a project, read that component’s manual separately. Confirm supervision, proposal approval, records, submission format and any viva requirements with the designated centre. A theory examination does not automatically complete these components.
A practical study routine
- Start with registration: list your actual paper codes and obtain the matching official materials.
- Read one unit at a time: record definitions, arguments or methods and write a short summary in your own words.
- Plan submissions: keep a calendar based on official notices and centre instructions.
- Practise answers: use previous question papers to understand question styles, then check your responses against the study text.
- Track every component: review recorded assignment, examination and practical results before treating a paper as complete.
