Others is a placeholder SEC bucket on Sulaksh for DU papers that do not yet have a dedicated folder in the SEC pool. As notified for 2025-26, every SEC remains a 2-credit SEC with assessment 'as per University guidelines' until your college assigns a specific UPC and syllabus from the Academic Affairs SEC list. Check the live SEC list at academicaffairs.du.ac.in/syllabi/skill-enhancement-courses/ and your college notice for the exact paper offered under 'Others' in your semester. Students often lose marks by assuming 'Others' needs no preparation; it is still evaluated via internal, practical/file and end-semester components, so confirm the assigned syllabus early and prepare that paper's units rather than this placeholder.
