The Anna University rule: R2021, clause 14
To pass an R2021 course, a student needs at least 50% of the total marks (internal + end-semester) and at least 45% of the marks of the end-semester university exam. For a theory course (40 internal + 60 end-sem), that means at least 27/60 in the end-semester exam and 50/100 overall. Internal marks have no separate minimum and are carried forward on re-attempts. From the third attempt onwards, a student who still misses the combined criterion is declared passed if they score at least 50% in the end-semester exam alone.
