examination system seems hard to develop but once it is

developed it will reduce the difficulties faced by
colleges/universities before and after the examination.
Online examination system reduces the need of resources
like paper and pen and also reduces the time killing process
of marks evaluation.
We design and develop the online examination

V. CONCLUSION
We have implemented an online exam management using
python, we had preferred python rather than from other
programming languages to avoid writing additional code
and keep application maintainable. This Online Examination
System is a web application. The key concept is to minimize
the amount of paper and convert all forms of documentation
to digital form. It can observe that the information required
can be obtained with ease and computerized system. The
user with minimum knowledge about computer can be able
to operate the system easily. It can be said that online
