What is the passing marks in IGNOU?

The passing marks in IGNOU in any subject 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.

What is the passing mark out of 50 in IGNOU?

The passing marks in IGNOU  in any subject out of 50 are 18. If one gets 18, in theory, means one passes in the subject and they have to appear for the exam again without assignments marks added you are the pass.

How does IGNOU calculate the percentage?

 Its 30% weight for Assignment and 70% weight for the TEE (Term-End Examination) exam for FST (Foundation Course in Science & Technology) and FHS (Foundation Course in Humanities and Social Sciences).

For example:

If you got in FST: Assignment marks=(88+88)/2=88 so weight for assignment = 40% of 88=35

TEE marks= 42 so weight for TEE= 70% of 42=29

So total marks you got is 35+29=64

What does not completed means in IGNOU grade card?

 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).
