The passing marks in MCA out of 100 are 35 in theory.

For the assignments we have to score above 50% means out of 100 we should at least get 50 marks.

If we got 35, in theory, means one passes in a subject and they have to appear for the exam again without assignments marks added one is a pass. 

But if we get below 50 in assignments one is failed in Assignments and needs to submit assignments again.

Its 30% weight for Assignment and 70% weight for the TEE (Term-End Examination) exam.

When a student fails in Term End Examination it means he/she doesn’t complete in IGNOU grade card.

If a student fails in Assignment or Term End Theory, he/she has to resubmit the IGNOU Assignment or Reappear in the IGNOU Term End Theory Exam.

In case a learner is pass in the assignment but fails in Term End Theory; then he has to ONLY reappear in Term End Theory (No need to resubmit the assignment.  IGNOU Assignment once submitted and Passed (or completed) are valid for entire programme duration).

If the learner has passed the Term End Exam but failed in Assignment, then he has to resubmit the IGNOU assignment only ( the assignment to be resubmitted will be the fresh one).     

IGNOU does not publish the result of  MCA assignments which is submitted by us separately on its official website. 

IGNOU MCA assignment marks are updated by the university on the student grade card.

The Ignou grade card is usually updated by the university after the declaration of term end exam result. 

However, the after submission of  MCA assignments by us at the study centre, the university can update marks on grade card at any time. 

Usually, the university takes 1–2 months in updating the MCA  assignment marks on the grade card.

There is a separate column for assignment marks in the grade card. 

Ignou MCA  assignment result is updated in the form of either marks or grades like A, B, C, D or E. 

After submitting MCA assignments at the study centre, we can check IGNOU MCA assignment status online at the university website. 

In the IGNOU MCA assignment submission status, we will not be able to know our marks. We can only check whether the assignments have been received by the university or not.

(b) We should not copy the answer of each and every question from the internet or from our study material.

(c) We have to write answers in our language while writing assignments. 

(d) The more we show our efforts in writing, the more we will be noticed while checking the assignments.

(e) The presentation matters.

(f) The pages of our work should be properly attached inside a file.

(g) All answers should be written in good handwriting.

(h) Proper indentation must be used.

(i) Each and every answer should be properly numbered.

(j) Only white A4 sheets should be used while writing answers.

‘Incomplete’ in IGNOU Grade card means ‘Fail’. 

If it’s written under Assignment, it means Fail in Assignment. 

If Incomplete is written under Term End Theory, it means Fail in Term End Theory; and if it’s under Term End Practical, then it means ‘Fail’ in TEP. 

Since IGNOU University is a distance learning university, which believes in educating people and continuance of the learning process, hence it doesn’t use the word “Fail”. 

Instead, IGNOU Grade Card uses “Incomplete”.
