The overall grading will be done using the same formula, i.e., 50% by examination panel and 50% by
the advisor. Advisors grade will be averaged over the course of four evaluations. Likewise, panels
grade will be decided based on averaging the second and fourth evaluation. Finally, appropriate
weighing will be done to decide the overall grade of the student.

Please note that panel of committee evaluation justifies the progress of the work. Hence proper
presentation, report writing and explanations to relevant questions during presentation will
yield better grade. Be sincere and serious in 2nd and 4th evaluation.
