Additionally, 145 students were successful in the second division. However, the overall pass percentage for the BSc 2nd year was 42.14%, indicating that more than half of the students faced challenges in achieving passing marks. This result showcases the increased difficulty of the coursework and expectations in the second year, requiring students to display deeper understanding and stronger academic skills.

A notable number, 508 students, were successful in the second division, while three students managed to pass in the third division. The total success rate for the BA 2nd year stood at 48.49%, highlighting that less than half of the students met the passing criteria.

Overall, the results from the University of Karachi 2023 annual exams indicate diverse levels of achievement across the different programs. While the pass rates for BA 1st year and BSc 1st year were relatively higher, the outcomes for the second-year exams in both programs showed a drop in success rates.

The university’s focus on providing quality education and maintaining high standards is evident, yet the outcomes also point to the importance of continuous improvement in student preparation strategies.
