Karnataka's VTU to Launch On-Demand Re-Exams for Engineering Students
Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU) in Karnataka will introduce an on-demand re-examination system from the 2027 academic session for engineering students who fail subjects. Students can request re-exams at their convenience, including public holidays, and select exam centers and dates. VTU will conduct exams even if only one student applies, using AI-generated question papers from a large question bank. Results will be provided within 24 hours, replacing the previous system where students waited up to a year for supplementary exams.
