DAVV to recheck MBA answersheets after mass failures in two subjects
Indore: Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) on Thursday initiated a re-evaluation process of answersheets for two MBA first-semester subjects — Quantitative Techniques and Accounts for Managers — after a significant number of students failed in these papers.
The move comes after a wave of complaints from students, who raised concerns over possible discrepancies in evaluation.
In the recently declared MBA results, a majority of students failed in only these two subjects, prompting the university to suspect lapses in the checking process. Taking the objections seriously, the university has begun scrutinising both, the marksheets and the answersheets. "The unusual pattern of failure, restricted to only two subjects, has raised valid concerns.
We are re-checking the answersheets to ensure there was no error in evaluation," said Dr Ashesh Tiwari, DAVV examination controller.
In addition to evaluation concerns, students of the second and fourth semesters faced logistical challenges when their ATKT and main exams were scheduled at the same time. After receiving complaints, the university revised the exam schedule. Now, instead of the morning slot, the overlapping papers will be held from 3 to 6 PM, eliminating the clash.
Third-semester students also encountered technical difficulties while applying for revaluation. The link on the official website was non-functional for a period, preventing them from submitting applications. The issue has since been resolved.
