Putting an end to all the confusion over exams, the Mumbai University (MU) on Wednesday issued a circular, which mentions that final year and college-level exams will be held online and the format of the question papers will be multiple-choice questions (MCQ) for traditional Arts, Commerce and Science courses, while for the professional courses, it will be a mix of descriptive ones and MCQs.

The circular brings clarity for lakhs of students from affiliated colleges. As per the circular, final year exams will be held in May based on the college cluster model, wherein the lead college will take the responsibility of organising the exams in consultation with other colleges. The college-level exams would have to be completed by April.
