  IMPORTANT RESTRICTIONS

 

1. Each student must complete all the above experiments during the semester.

    Otherwise the student will get grade “W” and has to repeat all experiments during the

    coming semester.

 

2. A make-up for the absences will be allowed only on the day of the last make-up

    day. 5% of the total Lab performance marks and 5% of total lab report

    marks will be reduced for each make up.

  

3. The students who have more than 2 make-ups will get the grade “W”.
