Hi all,
I'm a 2016-2020 batch BTech student from a state university. I had a backlog in the 3rd Semester that I could not clear until the 7th Semester, so I had to write the exam in March 2021. Exams were delayed significantly because semesters were running late due to Covid-19. I was very confident that I would clear the exam this time, so I started applying for jobs from April 2021. I got an opportunity to appear for the Infosys exam on 16th May 2021, which I cleared (although I am still waiting for the backlog exam result). Following the exam, I attended the interview and was given a joining date of 21st June 2021. We were required to confirm our joining before the 21st, so I confirmed it, hoping for a favorable result as the exam had gone well, and I anticipated having a provisional degree certificate within 2-3 weeks of joining.
However, the results were announced on 23rd June 2021, more than 3 months later, and I received the exact same marks as my previous attempt, indicating that I had not cleared the backlog.
I have now applied for re-evaluation, but that process will likely take up 2 months. Even if re-evaluation does not help, I will have to sit for the next exam in December-January and will receive the results by March 2022. I seek guidance on what steps I should take next.
Additionally, how much time do we have to submit all our documents, and what issues could arise if I have a degree from 2021/2022 instead of the expected 2020?
Please advise on the best course of action in this situation.
