Theory exams are typically out of 70 or 100, and assignments are scored out of 100.
- Grade Card
Your IGNOU grade card reflects the combined weighted percentage for each course.

The Mathematics
Subject % = (Theory × 0.7) + (Assignment × 0.3)IGNOU uses a weighted assessment model where the Term-End Examination (TEE) counts for 70% and continuous assignments count for 30%. Each subject's weighted score is calculated separately, then all subjects are averaged for the overall percentage.
The 70/30 Weighting Concept
IGNOU's evaluation system is heavily weighted towards the Term-End Examination (TEE), which constitutes 70% of your final grade. The remaining 30% is based on tutor-marked assignments.
Crucial: You must pass both components (TEE and Assignment) individually. A high score in one cannot compensate for a failing grade in the other.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does IGNOU calculate percentage?
IGNOU uses a 70/30 weighted formula: 70% of the marks come from the Term-End Examination (TEE) and 30% from continuous assessment assignments.
What if I fail in assignments but pass theory?
You must pass both components separately. Even if your combined weighted score is above the passing threshold, failing either component independently means you need to re-attempt it.
Does this apply to all IGNOU programmes?
The 70/30 weighting is the standard for most IGNOU undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, though some professional courses may have different breakdowns.
