You are required to get a minimum of 40 marks in each paper (not subject) and an aggregate of 50% in all the papers together to qualify in the examination.
You are not qualified if you do not get 40% in any one of the papers or if you do not get the 50% aggregate (total of 250)

Papers with Two or More Subjects Involved
Where a paper contains two or more parts (each part may be a separate subject or otherwise) with the total marks of 100 divided between the parts a candidate is required to get the minimum marks in all the parts together. There is no need for the student to maintain a minimum pass mark in each part separately.
Eg:
Paper 2:
Economics and Statistics [100 marks]
- Section A: Economics (50 Marks)
- Section B: Statistics (50 Marks)
The student is required to get the minimum of 40 marks in the two sections together. There is no minimum for each section
