Hall Ticket - Do's and Dont's (University of Mumbai)

The University of Mumbai provides hall tickets to all eligible candidates via its website.

There are two options:

1. You take a print out of your Hall Ticket

2. Your College takes a print out of your Hall Ticket and Distributes the same duly signed.

Note: 

DO's

Please see that the print out is a clear one.

Affix a recent passport sized photograph

The Hall Ticket must be signed / stamped with the signature of the Head of the Institution / Principal.

You will also need to sign the Hall Ticket

Take a photocopy (xerox copy) of the Hall Ticket and keep it safely. (This is especially important for those who tend to lose stuff easily)

Some Hall tickets have provision for signature of the examination supervisor at the center of the exam and the signature has to be taken on the day of the exam (during the exam). This is very important as it is proof of your attendance.

DONT's

Do not write anything unnecessary on your hall ticket

Hall tickets are your ticket to the exam... Do not fold it such that the printing gets distorted.

Hall tickets are a MUST for you to answer the exam... Do not leave for an exam without checking to see whether you have carried your hall ticket with you

Wish each one of you All the Best with the exams!!!

FOR ALL STUDENTS

Dear students,

Here are some guidelines which will be useful for all your papers.

• Don’t start your answer until you have fully understood the question. Read and re-read questions, paying attention to the wording.
• Answer to the point. Tailor the matter you know to answer the question. Don’t write all that you know on the topic.
• Get your facts right. Don’t give conclusions /arguments without factual backing.
• Use paragraphs- one paragraph for one idea or point. Each paragraph should be worked around one idea and the next idea should logically follow in the next paragraph.
• Use bullets and numbering to highlight points. Bullets/ point numbers should be INSIDE the margin and be distinguishable from question numbers. (Don’t number every sentence).
•  Leave enough margin space for examiner.
• Avoid long-winding introductions.
• Answer all subsections of a question together (Especially Q1) and number them clearly. no rhetoric, exclamations
• Language should be neutral. No emotion, or counter-questions.
• Don’t get personal in your answers: Don’t say “I feel”’, “I think” etc; instead say, “Some people argue that…..’
• Write clearly
• Don’t use abbreviations (such as ‘coz, n),
• Don’t underline every other word: highlight only the side headings.
• Not to use any colour other than blue or black for writing as using other colours is considered a malpractice.
• Don’t write anything on the question paper.
• Each question is a stand-alone question. Don’t say things like ”As discussed earlier…” etc.
• Keep a note of the time and don't waste time looking around for inspiration.

Sleep well, eat healthy and have some outdoor physical activity while you prepare for your exams. 

Wishing all of you the very Best in your exams and a bright future ahead!
