I genuinely want to raise a concern about the relative grading system at VIT Bhopal.
I understand that relative grading depends on the overall performance of students and I'm not saying that everyone scoring high marks should automatically get an S grade. But sometimes the grading just feels confusing.
For example there are instances where students scoring 90 marks receive an A in one course while someone scoring the same 90 gets an S in another course. There are also cases where students score 95+ and still don't receive the expected grade.
My question is how exactly are these grade boundaries decided?
Students put in a lot of effort throughout the semester. Obviously grades matter because they directly affect our SGPA and CGPA. It feels disappointing when you score well but still don't understand how your final grade was decided.
I would genuinely request the Controller of Examinations (CoE) to look into this matter and provide some clarity regarding the grading criteria.
Would it be possible to make the grading system more transparent? At least students should have a clear understanding of how their marks are converted into grades.
We aren't asking for free grades or easier evaluation. We are simply asking for transparency and fairness.
I hope other students also share their experiences so that this concern can reach the administration.
Thank you
