Does the UFM remark (after the declaration of UFM result) disappear from the result of AKTU after clearing the backlog?

RV

B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering from Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam University (Graduated 2016)

Yes, the UFM or Unfair Means remark will be mentioned in the new mark sheet you receive after clearing your backlogs. But on the Oneview result page of the AKTU website, the UFM remark will always be mentioned.

But the good news is that your career will not be much affected by this remark. All you have to do is clear all subjects and score an aggregate of 65%. 

My cousin had back in Maths 2 of the second semester but was able to clear it and scored 74% in the final BTech degree marks.

What happens if someone misses all exams in a semester in AKTU?

NS
Nikita Srivastava Posted On : November 9th, 2022
Studied at APJ Abdul Kalam University

If you have missed all the exams in a semester in AKTU, you can appear for the same again in the next year. If you missed the 1st-semester exams then you are supposed to give them in the 3rd semester. Similarly, if you have missed 2nd-semester exams, have to give them in 4th semester.

All this considered, there is one very important point to know. In order to appear for the missed exam in the second year, you need to get passing marks in the first year (including both 1st and 2nd semesters). Unless you score passing marks you will not be promoted to the next year. You will have to repeat the first year in this case.

Can instrumentation engineering students appear for IES?

PS
Palki Singha Posted On : January 18th, 2021
B.Tech Instrumentation Engineering, Andhra University College of Sciences (2017)

Irrespective of the branch, any B.tech graduate can appear and get selected for IES. The syllabus for IES is prescribed by UPSC. Currently, instrumentation engineering is not one of the subjects in the syllabus of IES.

The IES exam is conducted in three phases, i.e. prelims, main and personal interview.

The following table contains the syllabus of IES.

Syllabus

Paper-1

Paper-2

Prelims

General studies and engineering aptitude

Engineering discipline (civil engineering, mechanical engineering, electronics and telecommunications, and electrical engineering)

Mains

Engineering discipline -1

(civil engineering, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering)

Engineering discipline -2

(civil engineering, mechanical engineering, electronics and telecommunications, and electrical engineering)

As mentioned in the table IES consist of the following subjects.

  • Civil engineering
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Electrical engineering
  • Electronics and telecommunications

Therefore, it might be difficult for a student to select and study other branch subjects. It will require extra effort but it is possible.

The syllabus of instrumentation engineering is 90% similar to the syllabus of electrical engineering and electronics and telecommunications. Hence, it is advised that instrumentation engineering students should choose electrical subjects for the IES exam. However, there is no hard and fast rule to choose electrical subjects. You should select the subject in which you have good command.

If you fail to clear your backlog after the 4th year of B.Tech. In AKTU, you will have to reappear for the backlog exams.

NB
Neelanjana Bose Posted On : April 6th, 2023
B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering, University of Engineering and Management, Kolkata (2020)

Both CUSAT CAT and JEE are competitive entrance exams for engineering and other technical programs. Here are some points to help you understand the difficulty level of these exams:

CUSAT CAT:

  • CUSAT CAT is conducted by Cochin University of Science and Technology for admission to its undergraduate and postgraduate programs.
  • The exam consists of multiple-choice questions in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry.
  • The difficulty level of CUSAT CAT is considered to be moderate, and the questions are generally based on the NCERT syllabus.
  • The exam requires a good understanding of fundamental concepts and problem-solving skills.

JEE:

  • JEE is conducted by the NTA for admission to undergraduate engineering programs at IITs, NITs, IIITs, and other government-funded technical institutions in India.
  • The exam consists of two papers - JEE Main and JEE Advanced. JEE Main is a multiple-choice question-based exam, while JEE Advanced consists of both multiple-choice and numerical answer-based questions.
  • The difficulty level of JEE is considered to be high, and the questions are generally more challenging than those in CUSAT CAT.
  • The exam requires a deep understanding of fundamental concepts, analytical skills, and the ability to apply them to solve complex problems.

In conclusion, JEE is considered to be more difficult than CUSAT CAT due to its higher level of complexity and the need for advanced problem-solving skills. However, the difficulty level of both exams ultimately depends on individual preparation and aptitude
