Questions from students and parents were answered by Delhi University's Dean of Students Welfare JM Khurana during the exercise, which was held at the varsity's Conference Centre, situated opposite the Botany Department in North Campus.
"It is not clear what all subjects can be included in the best-four and what will be the deduction in case of vocational subjects?" an aspirant asked.
Another wanted to know "how will the colleges calculate the aggregate in case of sports quota admissions as the fitness test has been centralised from this year?"
Khurana explained that the best-four calculation policy has been simplified and it will include one language, two academic or elective subjects and the subject in which admission is being sought.

"In case the student is not including in the best four percentage the subject in which admission is sought, he or she will face a deduction of 2.5 per cent," he said.
From this year, it will be mandatory for students seeking admission in B.Com and Economics Honours courses to have mathematics as a subject in Std XII. It, however, will not be mandatory for them to include it in their best-four.
In order to simplify and enhance transparency in the admission process, the varsity has made certain changes in the admission guidelines and seat seekers are being made aware of it.
