OU Exams 2021: Osmania University has announced its decision to conduct UG exams for the third and fifth semester of its BA, BCom, BSc, BBA and BSW courses from today, i.e. July 8. Earlier, Osmania University scheduled the exams to begin from March/April 2021. However, varsity later postponed the exams because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Now, the postponed exams are being conducted from July 8 as per the official notification from the University.
According to the notification issued by the university, there is no change in centres for the exams and students have been instructed to use the hall tickets issued to them in March. However, the University has reduced the duration of the examination from 3 hours to 2 hours, owing to the pandemic, and the question paper will be changed accordingly. To compensate for the reduction in time, more choice and more weightage of marks will be given in the question paper.
According to the notice, OU has also scheduled the third and fifth-semester exams every day to reduce the number of days to conduct the exam, to ensure fifth-semester students appearing for sixth-semester exams can save the academic year as well.
In order to save the academic year of the students who missed exams amid the ongoing pandemic due to various reasons, OU will be conducting examinations for the sixth semester and these exams will be treated as the main examination. Students have been instructed to cooperate for the smooth process of examinations.
