Weighted course total with dual pass criteria
Total = (Assignment x 0.30) + (Term-end x 0.70), with each component >= 40- The assignment component must reach forty percent on its own.
- The term-end component must reach forty percent on its own.
- Some professional programmes prescribe a higher minimum, so check your programme guide.

How it works
Using the 30:70 Assignment & TEE Weightage Estimator in three steps
Every step below reflects the actual calculation this tool runs, so you can check the result by hand if you need to.
- 1
Enter the assignment mark and the term-end mark for the course.
- 2
Assignment is weighted at thirty percent and the term-end paper at seventy percent.
- 3
The tool also checks the separate forty percent pass requirement on each head before declaring the course passed.
About this tool
Most IGNOU courses weight the assignment at thirty percent and the term-end examination at seventy percent, but the two components must each independently reach forty percent. This estimator computes the weighted course total and reports the dual criteria separately so a strong assignment score does not hide a term-end shortfall.

Frequently asked questions
Can a high assignment score make up for a weak term-end paper?
No. The forty percent minimum applies to each component separately, so the term-end paper has to clear it regardless of the assignment marks.
Does the weightage change between programmes?
The 30:70 split covers most programmes, but a few courses with practical components use a different split stated in the programme guide.
Can a strong assignment rescue a weak term-end paper?
No. Each head must independently reach forty percent, so a high assignment score cannot compensate for a failed term-end exam.
What if my course uses different weightage?
Some practical heavy courses use other splits printed in the programme guide. Use those values instead of 30:70 when your guide says so.
