It’s a common perception that it is very easy to get degree of
Allama Iqbal Open University. What do you say about it?
It’s not like that or it’s a wrong perception because Allama Iqbal
Open University enjoys a good status among Sixteen Mega Universities
of the World. This University is for distant education of Asia and
Africa. It came into being in 1975 and during 33 years of its life,
a considerable number of students got benefit of it. The number
if its registered students is four lak and eleven thousand according
to the statistics of Allama Iqbal Open University.
Its examination system is the same as other universities have. Perhaps
people have misunderstanding about assignments and consider them
the only way of getting marks white a student of Allama Iqbal Open
University has to obtain 40% marks for passing the exam. |
