CSA- II

Candidates who have a minimum of 80% attendance at the relevant group work, field visits, specified lectures and seminars of Community Stream Stage III, will be eligible to appear for the CSA-II. Candidates who are ineligible to appear for CSA-II, due to not having the required attendance, will have to appear for the CSA-II held for a subsequent batch of candidates and it will be considered as their second attempt at the CSA-II. To be eligible to appear for this assessment, they are required to successfully complete an individual assignment specified by the Community Stream.

Candidates who obtain a minimum of 50% marks at the CSA-II will be considered to have passed the CSA-II. Those candidates who fail (less than 50% marks) at the above examination shall be deemed to have passed the CSA-II when they appear for a subsequent CSA-II examination and pass it (minimum pass mark 50%).

For any candidate who passes CSA-II in an attempt other than the candidate’s first attempt, the maximum mark carried would be 50% for that assessment, irrespective of the marks the candidate has obtained.

All students, irrespective of results of CSA-II will proceed with the Community Stream teaching programme.
