how many marks needed for 1st division PU?
 

hello every one here
today PU announced the MA history part 2 result and I visited the web site ,I got 295:oooo:oooo:oooo:sad:sad only in part 2 ,mine was 300 in part 1 , I calculated and I got 59.5% ,can some one explain how many marks give us 1st div?and what should i do now? reappear only in that paper in which i got least marks?or reappear as a whole ? please suggest .

Dear!
In annual system, throughout Pakistan, 2nd division starts from 40% marks up to 60% while 1st division starts from 60% onward. So again do your calculation and find out how many more marks you need to qualify for the 1st division.
Moreover, if you want to improve your score by re-examination, so you'll have to attempt the whole exam again not one or several papers, as is the rule in my university, anyhow you should contact the controller of examination in this regard.
Good Luck!

Sorry i need to correct your statement. Actually 2nd division start from 45% not 40%. Any percentage below 45 is regarded as 3rd division.

thank you Asim and Adil for your answers.according to you I need 5% more marks for 60% as mine is 59.5%

0.5%
 

not 5% but just 0.5%

so sad :sad ! you are just 5 marks short ..... i think you should visit PU and ask them if you may reappear for just one exam to improve your marks .... this option of improving is now available for matric and intermediate , as per my info ..... maybe PU also allows that for BA and MA ... best of luck :oo

yes I think I must try but one thing surprised me ,when I opened my web page where my result was printed .it was written that I have got 1st division and got 600 marks but I know mine are 595 ?,it is obviously a mistake and thanks for nice advice ,I will try to get permission , :cry:cry:cry

Dear you should contact the controller of exam and inquire about grace marks, in some universities, the facility of grace marks is provided to those stidents who couldn't get up to five marks to secure 1st or 2nd division. so do contact to get urself out from this confusion. Good luck!

One thing I forgot to mention was that a fraction more than 50 is counted as 1, so if you've got 59.51 onward, your marks would be counted as 60%, so don't worry you might have got 1st division.
Good luck!

hello every one and thanks for all of your replies toady I got my result card .and got 5 grace marks from PU now finally my marks are 595+5=600 .my division is first also ,
and it is a good news for every one keep in mind that if any student need 5 marks to score 1st or 2nd division university gives 5 marks as a grace marks to catch the required division .as it happened to me .:dd:dd:dd:dd
