How do I get my IGNOU ID card after taking admission in the MA programme?
To get your IGNOU ID card you need to visit your IGNOU regional centre. You can collect it from there. The ID card should have a stamp of IGNOU on it which makes it valid. If you will download your IGNOU ID card online, it does not have the stamp making it invalid. This will be a major problem in your exams.
It is highly possible that IGNOU does not mail your card. Most of the time you will have to visit the regional centre personally to get your IGNOU ID card.
How much can an average student score in an MA programme at IGNOU?
The word average student is vague. The examiner checking your answer sheets has no idea whether you are an average student or a topper. So it all depends on your preparation for the exam. You can get above-average marks if you study well and attempt the exam well. Similarly, not studying well might result in below-average marks.
The rough estimate of average IGNOU marks is around 55-60 marks (out of 100).
So it can be said that an average student can score first division easily. It mostly depends on how you write your answers.
