9. An entrance examination is conducted for admitting student into a course. The following
two tables are used for rank processing.
STUDENT MASTER MARKS MASTER
S_NO C(4) S_NO C(4)

PERCENTAGE N(5,2) SCORE N(5,2)
EXP_MON N(3)
TOTAL N(6,2)
RANK N(2)
S_NO is the primary key. PERCENTAGE is percentage of marks obtained in the

qualifying examination. EXP_MON is the work experience in months.
TOTAL = SCORE + PCR + ECR. For evaluating PCR and ECR use the following table.
RANK is candidate’s position based on the score in entrance exam. The SCORE is
marks obtained by the candidate in entrance exam. The following credits are given to the
student based on the percentage of marks and work experience.
PERCENTAGE EXP_MON
