IITM BS answers

Can I improve a grade I already passed in IITM BS?

Yes — as long as you're still within the same level (Foundation, Diploma, or Degree) and haven't progressed to the next one, you can retake a passed course to improve the grade, and the highest score across all your attempts counts toward your CGPA.

• ▸It costs double the regular course fee, and you have to resubmit everything — assignments, quizzes, and the end term.
• ▸The improvement attempt still counts against your CCC limit for that term.
• ▸Once you move to the next level, your CGPA for the previous level freezes — you can no longer go back and improve a Foundation grade after starting the Diploma level, for example.
