Open-book examinations were first started by the UoL in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. From that time onwards till this year’s October/November session, students have been allowed to carry desired hard copy study material during exams—books, teachers’ handouts, and personal notes.

Open-book exams are often undermined because of the misunderstandings surrounding them.

The Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) and its equivalent examinations will be held across the country on April 3 simultaneously.

Only nine percent of the admission seekers passed the entry tests to Dhaka University’s ‘Gha’ unit under social sciences faculty.
