Tips to get good marks in Engineering Examinations.

Dear student,

First of all, you need to be happy and be proud of you.

Be cool and receive question paper.

Write your USN on question paper.

Write your name in the block and put yours signature.

Fill all remaining details correctly.

Go through all questions from entire question paper once (slowly)

First, you need to attempt that question which you feel comfort and perfect.

Answers must be neat and spacious. Underline important points.

Do not write two or more answer per page.

For 10 marks, minimum 2 pages or more.

Write question number correctly for every answer.

Maintain space between answers also.

Draw drawings, wherever necessary.

Give more examples.

Prepare all MODULES for examination. Better, prepare or revise the modules in reverse order i.e. Module -5, Module-4, Module-3, Module-2 and Module-1.

If you solve at least 2 to 4 previous old VTU question papers of that subject, no doubt, definitely, you pass the subject.

Yours objective should be score out of out in all subjects. Do not be happy with only passing marks.

Please, do not COPY in examination that spoils yours life. FAIL in subject is better than COPY.

Better FAIL, but at any cost do not copy.

Try to read subjects for knowledge, not to pass examination, if you do so, then no doubt, you pass the examination. (i.e. like do not live for eating food, instead eat food to live)

Give respect to all...i.e. to your teacher, to the subject, to the black ink pen, VTU answer booklet, all writing materials..then you get good returns.

On VTU booklet it self they printed "First be human being....Modalu Manavanagu....".....

All the best...do well in exam....

ALL IS WELL.
