The Mumbai University suffered a significant loss of revenue which comes from revaluation applications submitted by students, as there is no provision for revaluation for take-from-home online exams in the MCQ format.
Each year thousands of students who receive low marks or fail exams apply for a photocopy of their answer sheets so they can verify and apply for revaluation. There have been cases where students’ marks have significantly improved after revaluation. However, in the 2020-21 academic year, the varsity has not received any such applications, and academics attribute this to exams conducted online.
