Potential additional date (April 28th) for the April 2023 NPTEL exams

[Local Chapter Announcement Forum]

Dear SPOCs,

 

Greetings from NPTEL!

 

The Jan 2023 session is coming to an end soon and it’s time to put all your best efforts for the certification exam.

The NPTEL team has always been there to make yours and your students’ learning process a joyful one and we hope that with your support we will be able to overcome the challenges of conducting a nation-wide exam of this magnitude.

With the closure of exam registration form for the NPTEL April 2023 exams, the final registration count stands at 5.1 Lakh compared to 3.7 Lakh reported during the Jul-Dec 2022 semester. 

 

Based on the previous semester data, seats at the certification exam centres are booked by NPTEL at the beginning of the exam registration process.

As the semester progresses, sometimes these numbers exceed our estimate, especially on certain dates and certain exam cities. 

Our goal is to allocate the chosen exam cities to all our learners. And by and large, we are able to allocate the chosen cities and dates with active support from our exam partner and our esteemed local chapters.

 

All efforts are being made to allocate the city of choice or the next nearest exam city for the April  29th/30th 2023 exams, as scheduled.

However, in view of the unexpectedly large volume of exam registrations & limitation of seats at certain cities on a particular date, we may be compelled to shift the exam date of certain candidates to 28th April 2023 (Friday) as a last resort, only after exhausting all possibilities.

 

We hope the students and the local chapter colleges will appreciate our logistical constraints of such rescheduling and extend all necessary support as before as an important partner of our journey and make the exam a successful one.

 

With best wishes for the forthcoming exam(s).

- NPTEL TEAM
