According to the sources, as per HEC guidelines “in each semester, students may be required to appear in quizzes, tests, midterms, final examinations, presentations (individual/group), group discussion, and submit projects/assignments/lab reports. These assessment marks (to be determined by the teacher concerned) will have different weightage contributing towards the overall assessment in percent marks”.
However, the sources told APP, that the involvement of an external examiner in examination paper setting exercise is also practiced by a few HEls, as in the case of NFC Institute of Engineering and Technology, Multan.
