There is a bias in question paper correction in my university.
So every student there are not able to get their exact score.
A paper is being corrected within a minute.
I thought asking this to one of most experienced staff in my college.
He is my lecturer too.
He corrected my paper within 45 seconds.
He also said that better the presentation and amount of content is a way to get good marks.
Please note that he is mentioning only about the amount of content to be written in the exam and not the quality of the content.

Due to this we are not able to achieve our real score.


HOW CAN I EXPLAIN THIS BIAS IN CORRECTION TO THE B-SCHOOL APPLICATIONS.

IS THERE ANY WAY HIDING IT :(

Hi, I am sorry but what is the relevance of this bias to the Adcoms?

Are you talking about GPA? What is your percentage? Adcoms will find it silly especially if other candidates in the past from the same university never complained about the same!
Vineesh,
Just telling you what I know and think. I am not the expert. :)

I belong to anna university tirunelveli.
Before my bath every college in my state is under the anna university chennai.
During my batch entry anna university chennai has been divided into four.
1.Anna university chennai.
2.Anna univesity coimbatore.
3.Anna university Trichy
4.Anna university Tirunelveli

They divided it for easier administration purpose.
But it had been hectic for students.
The university evaluate in their own way.
Anna university chennai and coimbatore are evaluating in students in a good way.
Anna university Trichy and tirunelveli are not upto the mark.

Due to this degrade in the lowerlevel administration the government has decided to join the four universities again under consideration anna university chennai.

i have around 80%
