The admission form for the M.A. Hindi Literature program typically starts around the beginning of the academic year which can vary depending on the institution. For the most universities the application process for the M.A. Hindi Literature program generally begins in late spring or early summer and can extend through July or August.

You can contact the admissions office of the respective institution that can give you the precise information regarding the start date of the application process and any other relevant details.

Hope this resolves your query.

Hello Aspirant,

The correct way you calculate your percentage is to add all the marks that you got in a semester and divide it by the  total maximum marks of all your paper.

Eg- British Literature- 78/100

American literature- 65/100

Literacy criticism- 65/100

Technical Writing- 75/100

Thus, your percentage will be -

78+65+65+75= 283

100+100+100+100= 400

Your Percentage = (283/400) *100

=70.75%

Do this for all your semesters and you'll have your semester-wise percentage. If the institute is asking for an aggregate percentage, then you need to give them an overall percentage, for that, take all your semester percentages and divide it by 5 (because you have results of only 5 semesters)

Eg- Sem 1= 70.75%

Sem 2= 68%

Sem 3= 60%

Sem 4= 72%

Sem 5= 65%

Add all your percentage-

70.75+68+60+72+65 = 335.75

Now divide this by 5 (Because we took the result of 5 semesters)-

335.75 /5 = 67.15%. This is your aggregate percentage.

Hope this helps.
