Parents of Class 12 Science students on Tuesday made a representation\n to the state education minister, demanding to continue with old system \nof board examination rather than having only descriptive questions. As \nper the new system, the boards would have 100% descriptive questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Citing this years poor results of Class 12 Science as a result for \nexamination change, the parents, in their letter said, “As this is first\n year of NCERT text books, students are finding difficult to cope with \nnew syllabus. Moreover, all the exams such as NEET, JEE and others have \nMCQs in the entire paper. Critical thinking is very important in such \nsubjects. In most of the exams, focus is more on memory rather than \nwriting ability or learning ability. First time in seven years that the \nboard results have been the poorest. It is not a case where students \nhave suddenly become weak in studies.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking about the same, Krushi Shah (name changed), a parent said, \n“For exams in 2020, students do not have past papers or paper style to \nrefer to. Due to this, students are under stress a month before \nappearing for NEET or JEE. For rural children, NCERT syllabus is only \ndifficult. In such a scenario, if exam pattern is changed, they will \nhave to suffer the most. CBSE is on the verge of reducing the syllabus \nto reduce stress among students. At a time when CBSE is bringing changes\n in its board exams from 2020, why does not Gujarat government do \nanything? Above this, CBSE allows students to take practicals in their \nown school. If this continues, then number of students opting for class \n12 Science will reduce.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our demand is only to keep 50% MCQ as well as 50% descriptive. \nStudents are not habituated to write descriptive answers. The minister \nhas given a positive response and assured us a reply in few days, she \nsaid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In semester system (earlier), students had to appear for two exams a\n year whereas now they appear for only one exam. Syllabus to remember \nhas increased and so is the descriptive questions. Earlier out of \n400-mark question papers, 300 were MCQs. Now out of 100, 50 marks worth \nof questions are MCQs and the rest are descriptive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The National Testing Agency (NTA) is likely to release NEET result 2019 on Wednesday. The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) 2019 result will be available on NTA\u2019s official website ntaneet.nic.in. This year, over 1.4 million candidates appeared for NTA NEET medical examination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
