Diversity in evaluation system followed by different varsities, students face problems in pursuing higher studies or applying for jobs. In the federal country like ours it is necessary to have a common system of evaluation should be adopted for uniformity and comparability so that student\'s mobility become easy. The study view that, grading should be cumulative grading and based on uniformity in the range of marks of grade interval with value based description. Also at the end of the course by using grading on the curve student\'s real progress in relation to similar group of students may be counted to bring uniformity and comparability in the system of evaluation at higher education.
