Internal Evaluation – Rules and Guidelines

Introduction

All MBA programs (full time, residential) at SIIB are of 100 credits.
Out of which, 30 credits are internal and 70 credits are external.
Out of these 70 credit courses, 60% is evaluated internally and 40% is evaluated externally.

Internal assessment is based on a pattern of continuous evaluation.

This evaluation pattern benefits both faculty and students as illustrated herewith:

 It helps the student to understand which topics they are weak at and how they can work towards
improving it before the final exams. It also helps faculty to assess student’s understanding and
grasp on various topics, enabling more focus on specific topics during the semester.
 Varied components of evaluation aim at developing the student on an overall basis enhancing
their particular traits and shaping their personality.
 Students get into the mode of regular studying from the start of the semester itself.
 Students are not burdened with one major exam.
 Syllabus for the tests would be whatever has been taught in class, before the test. Students are
responsible to obtain the study material from the respective faculty. Exam will not be cancelled
due to non-availability of the course material.

The Schedule of the tests given in the Calendar is tentative and can be changed, hence exams can
be preponed or postponed on short notice.

If Mass Bunking is done at exams, necessary action will be taken.

The Rule for Re test is :
 If a student misses any component of Continuous assessment, no retest will be conducted because
most of the faculty members would be conducting one extra component at the end of semester.
This retest will be based on minimum of 80% of the syllabus. Please note that marks of Extra
Component will be counted ONLY AGAINST ONE component missed during the semester. If a
student misses more than one internal evaluation component, he/she will get zero marks in the
concerned component.
 The Extra Component will be given to only those students who have informed to the respective
academic coordinator in writing prior to the test, that they would remain absent for the same
mentioning the reason.
 Extra component will be given ONLY to those students who are missing the test on account of
attending any event/competition on behalf of SIIB (prior approval of faculty-in-charge is
required) or unwell/sick ( certificate of SCHC is submitted with coordinators)
 Extra component would be conducted only once for each course.
