About Examination


Exams are the way to test our knowledge. Without exams and tests, students do not concentrate on their studies. Exams are necessary in schools and colleges to find out the real skills, talents and knowledge of the students. This module is used to maintain the entire examination records, including exam grades, exam groups, etc.

Examination Module Workflow: In Smart School, we use four exam types: General Purpose (Pass/Fail), School Based Grading System, College Based Grading System and GPA Grading System.

General purpose (Pass/Fail) - This is a non-grading exam type used in the majority of schools/institutions.

School Based Grading System - A grading exam type in which you can merge two or more exams of the same session to get a consolidated result with the final exam. For merging exams, the subjects should be the same for all exams.

College Based Grading System - A grading exam type in which you can merge two or more exams of different sessions to get a consolidated result with the final exam.

GPA Grading System - A GPA grading exam type based on credit hours and grade points.

First we will add Mark grade and then create Exam group then check the Exam schedule and the examination rank report. Students can also check the exam schedule and exam result.
