how to calculate index mark for bsc psychology in mg university and calicut university
Hello,
To calculate index marks for BSc Psychology admission in MG University and Calicut University, you need to follow the specific criteria set by each university.
1. MG University (Mahatma Gandhi University)
Index Mark Calculation for BSc Psychology:
Index Mark = Marks in Psychology (if studied) + Marks in Biology + Marks in English + (Optional subject, if any, as per merit rules)
Since Psychology may not be a subject in 10+2, the general formula they often use is:
Index Mark = Biology + English + Best two of the remaining subjects (as per eligibility criteria)
2. Calicut University
Calicut University follows a similar system:
Index Mark = Marks in English + Marks in Biology or Psychology (if studied) + Best two other subjects
If Psychology was studied at the +2 level, it may be given weightage or treated as a core subject. 10 marks may be added as weightage if the candidate has studied Psychology at +2 level. Marks are usually scaled to 200, depending on subject combinations.
For further clarification, please go through the university website and prospectus.
Hope this helps. All the best!
