3. Read the assignments carefully and follow the specific instructions, if any, given on the assignment itself about the subject matter or its presentation.  

4. Go through the units on which assignments are based. Make some points regarding the question and then rearrange those points in a logical order and draw up a rough outline of your answer. While answering an essay type question, give adequate attention to introduction and conclusion. The introduction must offer your brief interpretation of the question and how you propose to develop it. The conclusion must summarise your response to the question. Make sure that the answer is logical and coherent, and has clear connections between sentences and paragraphs. The answer should be relevant to the question given in the assignment. Make sure that you have attempted all the main points of the question. Once you are satisfied with your answer, write down the final version neatly and underline the points you wish to emphasise. While solving numericals, use proper format and give working notes wherever necessary. 

5. Use only foolscap size paper for your response and tie all the pages carefully. Avoid using very thin papers. Allow a 4 cm margin on the left and at least 4 lines in between each answer. This may facilitate the evaluator to write useful comments in the margins at appropriate places.

6. Write the responses in Your hand. Do not print or type the answers. Do not copy your answer from the units/ blocks sent to you by the University. If you copy, you will get zero marks for the respective question.

7. Do not copy from the response sheets of other students. If copying is noticed, the assignments of such students will be rejected.

8. Write each assignment separately. All the assignments should not be written in continuity. Write the question number with each answer. 

9. The completed assignment should be sent to the  Coordinator of the Study Centre allotted to you. Under any circumstances do not send the tutor marked response sheets to the SR & E Division at Headquarters for evaluation.

10. After submitting the assignment at the Study Centre get the acknowledgment from the coordinator on the prescribed assignment remittance-cum-ackilowledgments card.

11. In case you have requested for a change of Study Centre, you should submit your Tutor Marked Assignments only to the original Study Centre until the change of Study Centre is notified by the University.
