Can students having supplementary exam in a semester write improvement exam in the same semester in Calicut University?
If you are talking about the same paper then you can’t take the supplementary examination as well as improvement examination in the same semester at Calicut University. Let’s say you fail in paper A in the first semester and scored a B grade in paper B. During the third semester, you can write any paper of the first semester, if you pay the required fees. For paper B you will need to take an improvement examination and for paper A you need to take a supplementary examination.
Which is better Calicut University or Pondicherry University?
Pondicherry University's campus is extremely student-friendly, with free wifi available 24 hours a day and clean female hostels. It has the most extensive library. There is a free bus service on campus, as well as a shopping complex and other amenities. Paperwork and administrative tasks are also completed on time. Pondicherry is also a lovely location. You receive all of the advantages of studying at a Central University.
The syllabus at Calicut University which is a state university is excellent, but administrative support is lacking. Your certificates will not arrive on time. And the first-semester end exam will be held during the second semester's end, which is extremely complicated. Calicut University has a good campus, as well as a good library.
Are there revaluation and improvement exams for Calicut University? What about other Indian universities, do they have them too?
If you have failed or not attained the expected marks you can always apply for a revaluation paper. One of my friends failed an exam and after applying for revaluation got an A grade. However, the entire situation affected his placement procedure.
The exam schedule and results are disorganized at Calicut University.
The 1st sem exam will be held in the 3rd sem, 2nd sem exam in 4th sem, 3rd sem after two months of 2nd sem exam, 4th sem exam in 5th sem and the rest of the exams will be on time. Lastly, the consolidated certificate will be granted on time but the original certificate will take a lot of time.

Why is Calicut University so cruel?
Calicut University has worth, which is why it is still in running. Some students enter college and, after a year, succumb to depression due to personal reasons, despite having been good students in the school with over 85% marks. Nonetheless, they fail in a few semesters.
Exams are not held on time, and results are not delivered on time. Only book nerds find it easy to pass with passing grades. This university is not thought to be for the underprivileged. You simply must be patient and work extremely hard to avoid becoming trapped in such a situation. Studying one or two weeks before an exam will not help in any way.

Which university is more valid, Calicut or IGNOU?
Both Calicut and IGNOU offer valid distance education degrees. You can choose any of these institutes for a distance learning course. As degrees offered by IGNOU and Calicut University are UGC-DEB approved.
However, IGNOU degrees are more recognized in the country. For Govt. sector jobs degrees from both these universities are valid and eligible.
What are the minimum marks required to get admitted to Calicut University for a BA in English literature?
It is determined by the number of seats available at the college. Calicut University does not conduct exams properly, and your grades will not be corrected. This means that the student who studies the best in class and the student who did not study for the exam get nearly the same grade.
The university doesn't even properly correct the papers. It's also evident in newspaper articles about the majority of students failing a university exam. Your semester exams will be held on an irregular basis. That is, if you are in the third semester, you may write for the first semester.
Furthermore, if you fail at some point in the third semester and all of the other semesters succeed, it will take years for you to pass the exam because the supplementary exam is not given frequently.
Can a student who is waiting for the supplementary exam result be able to apply for post-graduation at Calicut University?
At Calicut University, to be eligible to apply for a post-graduate course, one must have completed the undergraduate course and provide proof of completion in the form of a Degree Certificate. A Provisional Certificate would suffice as well.
If you are awaiting the results of the Supplementary exams, you will be unable to produce the Degree Certificate and thus will be ineligible to apply. This is based on the assumption that Supplementary Exams indicate that you did not pass a specific paper.
However, if the exams are Improvement Exams, the situation is different.
