In view of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Board of Technical Education (BTE), Government of Delhi, has cancelled even semester exams for diploma programmes for both intermediate and final semester students. The students will be evaluated on the basis of their past performances-- internal assessment marks and previous semester marks.
“The students of all semesters will be promoted on the basis of internal assessment (50% credit) and their previous year's performance in end-semester BTE Examination (50% credit),” BTE said in a statement.
The board has said that students who want to improve their current semester scores will be able to appear in the improvement exam whenever they are held in the future.
