There is no inbuilt provision of automatic moderation.The moderation by grafting is considered two papers in which the pass percentage is less than 40 with a maximum of three marks for both papers.
-
Grafting is a procedure in which the individual who has got less marks than aggregate in one paper will be adjusted with a maximum of three marks from the high scored paper of that student. (Ex: for an MPC candidate, if she has failed with two marks in mathematics she will be benefited from the other subjects where she scored higher marks).
-
Grafting allows transfer of marks from donor paper/s to make up the deficiency of marks in the failed paper/s. The first potential donor paper is that in which highest marks have been obtained.
-
If other donor papers are required, those will be considered on the basis of descending order of marks. It is to be noted that grafting will not change the aggregate marks obtained by the student.
-
After the grafting, the failed paper will be marked as passed.
-
The maximum number of marks that can be transferred from any donor paper is three marks only.
-
Grafting procedure is limited to two papers.
-
The transfer of the marks will be allowed from theory to theory or practical to practical papers.
-
Grafting is allowed within the parts only
