Frequently asked questions
What exactly is a head of passing?
It is an independently assessed component such as theory, internal assessment or practical, each of which must be cleared separately.
Does ATKT eligibility guarantee admission to the next year?
It makes you eligible for provisional progression, subject to college level confirmation and the current ordinance.
Does ATKT clear the backlog?
No. ATKT only lets you attend the next year. The backlog paper still has to be cleared in a later attempt.
Are practicals counted as separate heads?
Yes. Theory, practical and term work are separate heads of passing and each failed head counts towards the ATKT limit.
