Amity MCom Viva Questions: When Do You Get Them and How Are They Evaluated?

Amity MCom viva questions become available after you upload your full project report in Stage 2. They are not accessible during Stage 1 extended abstract submission. Once your Stage 2 upload is confirmed by email, five descriptive questions about your specific MCom project appear on the student portal. You must answer all five for final submission to be accepted. The viva is worth 30 marks out of 100 and is evaluated based on the quality of your written answers demonstrating understanding of your own research.
