Respected sir,
My daughter studying in class 10 is greatly disappointed with difference in difficulty level of class 10 exams. Set 3 is difficult in all exams but set 1 is very easy and has direct questions.. She s one of the school topper and fears that her position will alter due to this inequality. This will misguide the students and they will start believing in luck instead of handwork. Thus we kindly request you to do lenient evaluation for set 3. With different question paper how can we judge the student's level?

Dear madam
MY daughter is facing the same situation. I too have posted a same kind of grirvance may be to deaf ears . But with a hope that in future academic years at least this situation doesn't arise. My daughter is still upset after yesterday Sst paper set 3. They are forcing children to believe in luck than sincere hard work. Please Please let this not repeat. It's a humble request from a deeply hurt parent
My daughter also faced the same situation yesterday yet she is the topper in school.Even I posted the complaint to cbse board I don't know whether board will take prompt action to the sufferers.It is really unfair.And it is not individual opinion.In my circle students who received Sat 3 has the same view as mine.
I KINDLY REQUEST THE BOARD PLEASE PROVIDE GRACE MARK TO THOSE STUDENTS ATTENDED SET 3 SST PAPER.(CLASS 10). HOPE BOARD WILL DO . THANK YOU

    Namasthe,
    I am a student of class10. This is with reference with the unexpected differences in question paper, with varying difficulty levels in class 10. Set-3 was the most difficult set in science and social science according to many. Set-1 candidates enjoyed the most easiest paper in all the exams. Apart from denying students an equal opportunity to prove themselves, this system has also created disbelief in "it is handwork that determines success". Students now tend to relate their results more with fate rather than an opportunity to know where they stand. This resembles a running race with different start points and expecting all the runners to reach the same destination at the same time.

    This is not all, the students who receive a particular set will have to put up with it for all exams. How are we, the students who received set-3 and set-2 in any way from the student who had the joy of getting set 1? As class 10 is the begging of our intense education such shock is a real disadvantage to us. "luck" is out of the syllabus, so we shouldn't be assessed of it.

    Imagine how will a student feel, after spending the whole year studying comes to know she will not receive what she deserves just because she got the most difficult set?

    This will also induce fear in the up coming board candidates for sure. The irony of studying about equality in subject like social science and facing inequality in the examination of the same is not desirable.

    Providing grace marks for the difficult sets, according to me is the only viable solution. As this situation is serious, i request the cbse to look at this issue and do the necessary.

    Ps: the above content is just an opinion after taking opinion from the students i know and my own opinion.
    Thanking you
    Yours faithfully
    Ajitha

      My son is appearing class x cbse board examination 2019.in his science paper (Series jsm/4 set-2 code 31/4/2) in question no 13 there is a part of the question “draw a ray diagram to show the path of light when two identical glass prisms are arranged together in inverted position with respect to each other and a narrow beam of white light is allowed to fall obliquely on one of the faces of the prisms.” for this question he has not drawn answer figure given in ncert science book for class x, because this figure is wrong. But he has drawn a different figure which is actually correct. So he must not loose mark. Cbse is adopting faulty system in blindly accepting ncert book's answer. If we apply snell's law then easily we can prove that ncert book's figure is wrong. Very surprising to say that the professors who have written the ncert book, they have not understood snell's law. The cbse marking scheme has accepted the wrong ncert figure many times, also this time. What we can say about cbse education standard? For so many years the students of india are getting mark by drawing the wrong figure. The ncert authors have no standard to write the book, also the persons who have prepared the marking scheme have no standard to do so.

        This is regarding social science paper question number 24 set 3 for class 10
        For the first time a question based on rote learning was asked and that too for 5 marks it is very unfair for students who got set 3
        Students who were expecting full marks had tears in their eyes its very demotivating to have learnt four books and still suffer due to a question which did not test any understanding of the subject

            Respected sir / madam
            As far as we have understood till now the 3 sets of question papers provided will either have shuffled questions or same difficultype level. Bur yr 2019 x board paper saw set 1 of science, maths and sst were easier compared to set 2 and 3. And best part was a student who got set 1 got the same set for all subjects and those who got set 2 or 3 were enjoying the tougher paper for all subjects. This has ended up in kids believing in their luck rather than hard work. Please this a request to the board to make some changes in the next academic years so that children do not loose hope on their hard work.
            Thank you

              I m parent of boy studying in class 10 as there was today[protected] sst exam set 2 & 3 q-24 in section c is out of syllabus. While the other that is set - 1 had the same question is very easy. Then why should children of set 2 & 3 suffer. I request board member to see it and provide grace marks to students. The students who were expecting full marks will suffer because of this.

                Cbse class x exam for social science had different difficulty level questions in different sets. Q24 of set 3 jms/3 was irrelevant as it tested only rote learning not knowledge, there was no choice in the said question which is so unfair, other students who attempted different sets had a comparatively easier question. Never ever has such a question been asked for five marks. This is so demotivating for a deserving student

                Yes i agree with you. I am also very disappointed by CBSE. set 1 had a very easy ques regarding this. But this ques of set 3 is IRRELEVANT. also the data given in the book is as on 6 JANUARY, 2007. so there was no point of asking such data. 5 marks can cause a tremendous difference in overall position and it is a shame and a mere game of luck.
                PLEASE GIVE 5 GRACE MARKS
                Yeah. It is really disappointing set 3 students. Some more it is in 5 marks . Consider those students and please give grace marks.

                  In cbse science paper 2019 for class x (Series jsm/4 set-2 code 31/4/2) in question no 13 there is a part of the question “draw a ray diagram to show the path of light when two identical glass prisms are arranged together in inverted position with respect to each other and a narrow beam of white light is allowed to fall obliquely on one of the faces of the prisms.” for this question the cbse answer scheme is only considering the figure given in ncert science book for class x, but this figure is really wrong. If a student has drawn the correct figure differing from ncert should be given full mark. Much before the start of evaluation of science paper i have communicated about this to cbse office by email and postal letter, but there is no respond. The mistake is continued from many years.

                    Address: Ludhiana, Punjab, 141012

                    Dear sir/madam,

                    This is to bring to your kind attention that my ward avijotpreet singh is studying in dav school, samana, patiala. He is a very bright student and he has scored 97% in ii standard. I am currently working in ludhiana so i wanted to get my ward admitted in dav sn secondary school ludhiana in iii standard. I had filled the fees of rs 1100 for brochure and test. When the result came my ward's name was not there in the list of students who got the admission. It is very hard to belive that the student who just got 97% in dav school, samana, patiala didnot even qualify the test in dav brs nagar ludhiana. I went to dav school ludhiana for inquiring the marks of my ward so that i know how much he is lagging in the preparation as he has to take more tests for the admission in other schools, dav school brs nagar ludhiana denied to show me the marks. This is highly disappointing that i paid the fee and my ward took the test and i am not having even the right to know the marks of my ward, which is directly questioning the transparency taken in the process. I request you to kindly look in the matter as my wards future is at stake. I shall be highly obliged.

                    Regards,

                    Lovepreet singh

                          This is with reference to the history board exam conducted on the 25th march 2019.in set 2 ques 7 was of 4 marks (Why did br ambedkar argue for a strong central) but that topic did not have the necessary amounts of points for a 4 marker, in the textbook we have only 1 point in this context. And source 1 was totally out of context of the book. The questions in the first source were neither from the source nor from the text and were extremely confusing.

                          Standard 10th Hindi course B paper on 19th march had question number12 which was out of syllabus. Question 12th was from hindi course A text book. This question was for 5 marks so it will adversely effect the total percentage of the students. Please look into this matter .

                            Dear Sir,

                            The mathematics paper set-1 of class X held on 07/03/2019 was toughest among all the set. Particularly the trigonometry and quadratic equation questions are out of the textbook. Therefore, my request is that kindly provide some grace marks on a few questions so that my ward will get justice.

                            Thanking you,

                              Dear sir
                              I want to know that the rules of passing in primary classes. Is that any rules to drop a child in nursery class and school can run their own syllabus. That means school can force a child to study higher than his class syllabus. Ex - child is studying in class kg and force to study of class second book. Because i come to know that one of school is doing same in their class and drop a nursery class child because he was not fit for this situation.

                              Please reply

                                    On 13th march 2019 students appeared for the science exam.
                                    In set 2 of science paper (That is the code is 31/4/2) one question was out of syllabus.
                                    In section c, the question number 12 was the one out of syllabus.
                                    The question was - "the following diagram shows two straight conductors carrying same current..."
                                    This question did not exist in ncert book and most of the students failed to answer and didn't know how to do it. Schools even didn't say about such questions. When i asked my teacher she said this is not of your standard. I was shocked.

                                    I would sincerely request you to kindly look into the matter and an immediate response would be appreciated wholeheartedly. I would sincerely request you to give grace marks for this question.

                                    I just want to know whether it is out of syllabus or not. My friends who got the same set have complained. If possible kindly give us grace marks. Awaiting your response. I wouldn't have complained but since the teachers said that it was out of syllabus, I was confused.
                                    I am even sorry for the troubles I gave you

                                    Have a great day!!! ^_^

                                      I would like to draw your attention to class X Hindi CBSE board exam question paper held on 19/3.
                                      The choice pattern of question nos 8 &10 is very confusing. It doesn't explain whether the choice is for 1 mark or entire 5 marks.
                                      Moreover, the questions given as choice are long answer questions which have appeared as a 5 mark question in at least two previous year questions.
                                      Many students have thought them to be a choice of 5 marks and have attempted accordingly, as the choice questions are given as long answer questions in NCERT books too. Some students even asked the invigilator and he clarified that the choice is of 5 marks.
                                      For anyone reading the question paper, it is like either attempting parts a, b, c or the choice question, hence the confusion.

                                      Request you to kindly take the matter with CBSE to consider it as a 5 mark question or else will be a huge loss and mental exersion to the kids who have attempted it as a long answer question.
