MBA Evening Students, Please Note

The last paper, Managerial Skills II, appears only in the Day batch’s table. So Evening batch exams end on 30 November, going by this PDF. If you are not sure, ask your college office.

Making a Plan Around the Gaps

Here is a simple approach that works for most students:

  1. Start with your hardest paper, and look at how many days you have before it.
  2. Keep the one-day gaps for quick revision, and finish the reading in the weeks before.
  3. Use the long break before 30 November for Artificial Intelligence, or Quantitative Techniques if you are in MBA.

This is only friendly advice, so adjust it to your own strengths.

What the PDF Does Not Say

There is no mention of hall tickets, exam centres or any fee here. Your college should be able to help with those. Please also check your scheme, as an older scheme may have a separate schedule.

Downloading the Schedule

The PDF has three pages, and only one is likely to be yours: page 1 for MCA, page 2 for M.Ed and page 3 for MBA. Save that page as an image on your phone, so that you can check it quickly without searching.
