Mayuri Sultana Hello Mayuri!

I have got the complete information for you from NIOS Prospectus 2020-21 related to their ODES programme, which states that you're eligible to appear for the exams you've mentioned here if you are a registered learner at NIOS and you can also change your subject. But there are certain requirements.

Pompi Bhadra Hello Ma'am,

Okay.... But.... I have English, Physical Education, Accountancy, Business Studies, Maths and Economics.... If I fail in Accountancy, Eco and Maths.... Can I give only 2 subjects On Demand Exam???


I don't want to give On Demand Exam on Accountancy......


I just want to give On Demand Exam on 2 subjects only :- Economics and any other subject instead of maths....


I want to change Maths to any other subject..... Can I change Maths? Suppose I take up up Bengali instead of Maths.... And give On Demand Exam on these 2 subjects only (eco and bengali)..... Is it possible????


I also want to know.... Can I give On Demand Exam this year in the month of July???? Is it possible...???

Mayuri Sultana Firstly, you just tell me Mayuri if you are already a registered learner of NIOS or not? If you are not, you won't be eligible for ODES this year. I'll guide you about how to get yourself registered at NIOS. But, first you answer to this question of mine.

Pompi Bhadra No.... I will register after my boards result

Mayuri Sultana Okay, after your results are declared, get yourself registered at NIOS as a learner.

You can change your subject from Maths to Bengali (or any other that you wish) by paying a fees of Rs. 720/- and following some other necessary procedures. And you can also appear for 2 subjects through ODES (maximum no. of subjects for which you can apply is 4).
Get yourself registered first. And then, feel free to contact us or go through NIOS prospectus for 2020-21 thoroughly.

Pompi Bhadra Okay maam thank you so much😊

Pompi Bhadra But i heard that i can give ODE the same year... And I can Save my year (2020) and get addmission in any clg this year it self....

Is it true??

Mayuri Sultana Yes, Mayuri..
ODES makes you eligible to appear for the exam anytime throughout the year. So, in this way you're provided with an opportunity to give your exam this year itself and get yourself enrolled in any college of you wish.

Pompi Bhadra Okay okay thanks a lot ma'am😇🙏🏻
