The problem with having a combined roll-number system in relation to all three sections is that a calculation needs to be performed to tell which section a student is in. However another approach you could consider is having a separate roll-number system for each section. For example: 101 to 140 for section 1 201 to 240 for section 2 301 to 340 for section 3 You can then see at a glance which section a student is in.
