I'm an bsc(comp sci) student studying in 1st year right now. I just wanted to ask that whether backlog of any subject is allowed?
Hello,
You are a first year student presently so instead of worrying about backlogs you should prepare hard to avoid any.
In worst case of you do get backlogs make sure to clear it within the course duration. That way at the end of course you will be eligible for the exam. As the exam requires no outstanding backlog. Once you have completed your degree by passing all the papers you can take the exam. All the best
Hope it helps
