DETERMINATION OF MERIT

1. EXAMINATIONS CONSIDERED FOR MERIT PURPOSE

For admission to all the bachelor’s degree Courses and determination of merit the following examinations are considered:
a) Intermediate examination or equivalent with the following combinations: Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry; OR Mathematics, Physics,
Computer Science; OR Mathematics, Physics, Statistics; OR Physics, Chemistry, Biology
b) Diploma of Associate Engineer OR B.Sc. Engineering Technology or equivalent for reserved seats only:
c) Entry Test 2020.

2. MERIT DETERMINATION
2.1 Aggregate
An applicant must have at least 50% overall adjusted aggregate marks. Aggregate marks are computed according to the following formula:
 In case of Intermediate stream:
a) Entry Test (ET) Percentage Marks: 30% weight in merit aggregate.
b) Matric Percentage Marks: 25% weight in merit aggregate.
c) First Year Percentage Marks: 45% weight in merit aggregate.
 In case of Diploma of Associate Engineer (DAE) stream:
a) ET Percentage Marks: 30% weight in merit aggregate.
b) Sum of First- and Second-Years Percentage Marks: 70% weight in merit aggregate.
 In case of B.Sc. Engineering Technology or equivalent degree stream:
a) ET Percentage Marks: 30% weight in merit aggregate.
b) 7 semesters CGPA if degree is not yet complete: 70% weight in merit aggregate.
 In case of foreign qualification:
a) ET Percentage Marks: 30% weight in merit aggregate.
b) Marks earned in 11th Class (“O” level or equivalent): 70% weight in merit aggregate.

Notes:
a) In case the candidate has already completed his/her intermediate or equivalent qualification, their Part-I result would be used in
computation of Aggregate.
b) In case of foreign qualification, letter grade will be converted to marks by IBCC formula. IBCC equivalent certificate is required to
be submitted after admission.
c) In case of B.Sc. Engineering Technology degree holders, CGPA of 2.5 out of 4.0 would be treated as 60% and CGPA of 4.0 out
of 4.0 would be treated as 90%. Other CGPAs would be interpolated accordingly.

3. MERIT OF INTERMEDIATE (PRE-MEDICAL) WITH MATHEMATICS

In determining the merit of an applicant having Intermediate (Pre-Medical) with Mathematics as an additional subject, the marks obtained in the
subject of Biology are replaced by those obtained in Mathematics.

Committee has awarded marks according to the degree of his proficiency.
ii. Intermediate/ DAE/ B.Sc. Engineering Technology or equivalent marks are adjusted according to the following formula:
 Percentage Marks obtained in Intermediate/ DAE/ B.Sc. Engineering Technology or equivalent + (Marks awarded by the Verification
Committee/11)

6. DETERMINATION OF MERIT IN CASE OF EQUAL PERCENTAGE OF ADMISSION MARKS

If two or more applicants have equal percentage of admission marks (up to four places of decimal after truncation), they shall be treated at par
for the purpose of admission.

Explanation
In case there is a tie for the last seat in a particular discipline/category, then all the candidates who have secured equal percentage of admission
marks (up to three places of decimal) shall be admitted. No transfer or new entry into that discipline/category shall, however, be considered unless
the actual number of candidates already admitted falls below the number of allocated seats for that discipline/category.

7. MERIT DETERMINED CATEGORY WISE

The seats for admission to the bachelor’s degree courses at the University are distributed over various categories. These categories are discussed
below. The details of the distribution of seats are available in the Seats Allocation Chart. The applicants for each category are grouped separately.
Then on the basis of the percentage admission marks, comparative merit of the applicants comprising the group is prepared. The applicants
belonging to a category thus compete for admission amongst themselves for the seats allocated to it.

8. TRANSFER ON THE BASIS OF GIVEN PREFERENCES AND MERIT

In case a seat in any discipline/category of applicant’s higher preference falls vacant and he is eligible for transfer to that discipline/category on
the basis of his merit, he shall be automatically transferred to the discipline/category.

 The University authorities may exercise their right at any time to increase or decrease the number of seats allocated to any category and there
shall be no appeal against such a decision.

10. UN-UTILIZED SEATS

If some seats allocated to any category (other than Open Merit) remain un-utilized for lack of adequate applicants, then the un-utilized seats are
transferred to Punjab domiciled Open Merit category and are filled under the same terms and conditions as applicable to the former.
