With CBSE Board exams cancelled, students now worried over assessment method
The Hindu
They feel evaluation strategy considering marks in Class 11 or Class 9 may not do justice to their hard work
Aron Selestin is disappointed that he would not be appearing for the Class 12 CBSE boards this year, but also understands how health has been prioritised in the decision to cancel the examinations. A Class 12 Science student at Kendriya Vidyalaya, Akkulam, Aron says he cannot imagine contracting the infection and having to miss the rest of the examinations. As he is preparing for the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE), he thinks the effort put in gearing up for the boards would stand him in good stead there. Not everyone though shares his sentiments, and it is perfectly understandable, says Aron. “Many students feel that as they did not have a conventional academic year, conventional examinations too do not make sense.”More Related News
