Speaking to The Hindu, Visakhapatnam District Educational Officer L. Chandrakala said that due to the change in the science paper examination pattern from this year, the School Education Department (SDE) started conducting pre-final examinations and practice tests for students from October last.
The questions from 1 to 16 are related to physical science and from 17 to 33 are related to biological science. Students will be given two booklets of 12 pages each to write answers separately.
“But generally in examinations, students have a habit of answering easy questions first. So students should have to pay more attention while attempting the science paper. However, due to the practice, it will be easy for them. Our invigilators will also alert them” said Ms. Chandrakala.
If students write answers related to biological science on the booklet with questions related to physical science, they will not be valuated. The invigilators were directed to alert the students every 15 minutes while writing the science exam.
On the other hand, the first day of examinations in the district started peacefully on Monday. Out of a total of 27,855 students, 132 students did not appear for the exam.
“There were no untoward incidents on Monday. All the officials including Visakhapatnam Collector A. Mallikarjuna have inspected the examination centres,” said Ms. Chandrakala.
