Student's Reaction

After giving the exams students interacted with the media and said " In paper 2, Physics questions were difficult while Mathematics part was bit tricky".

But, students are expecting to score above 150 marks in the exam.

In the paper there was a mix of single choice, multiple choice and passage type single choice questions. For single choice questions, students will be awarded 3 marks for correct answer and 1 mark will be deducted for the incorrect answer.

For multiple choice questions students will be given 4 marks for the correct answer, 1 mark for the partially correct answer and 2 marks will be deducted for the incorrect answers.

For passage type single choice questions students will be given 3 marks for the correct answer and there is no negative marking for the incorrect answer.
