Sanfoundry Engineering Physics Certification
Sanfoundry offers online certification in Engineering Physics for free. As this subject is generally studied in 2 semesters, we have 2 different certification exams for it, namely, Engineering Physics - I and Engineering Physics - II. You can choose to give one of the exams or both of them.The certification exam is divided into two parts: Level 1 to 10 Tests and a final Certification Test.
First step is to take the Level 1 test, followed by Level 2 test, followed by Level 3 test, and so on. If you have scored an A-grade in a Level test, then only you can proceed to the next Level. Once you have passed all the 10 Levels with A-grade, then only the system will allow you to take the Final "Certification Test". If you have scored an A* (Genius) or A (Excellent) grade in the final Certification Test, then you will be awarded a “Certificate of Merit” in Engineering Physics from Sanfoundry.
Level 1 to 10 Tests:
Total Questions: 25, Total Time: 30 min, Correct Answer: 2 points, Wrong Answer: -1 point
Certification Test:
Total Questions: 50, Total Time: 1 hour, Correct Answer: 2 points, Wrong Answer: -1 point
Grading:
Based on your score, you would be given one of the following Grades:
Grade A* – Genius (You scored 100%)
Grade A – Excellent (Your score is in the range of 80% to 99%)
Grade B – Good (Your score is in the range of 60% to 80%)
Grade C – Average (Your score is in the range of 40% to 60%)
Grade D – Poor (Your score is in the range of 0% to 40%)
