Exam goof-up: Now, Plus One geography questions under scanner
Synopsis
Several questions in the Plus One geography exam were found to have been lifted from a model paper The incident comes just two days after the education department quashed the SSLC mathematics exam
In yet another blow to the Kerala state education ministry, majority of the questions in the recent Plus One geography examination have been found to have been lifted straight from a model paper.
In what is clearly another case of mismanagement of public examinations, questions worth 43 marks - out of the total 60 - were found to have been copied from the question paper of a model examination held at schools in the capital.
The geography exam, which has come under the scanner, was held on March 21, with questions set by the LDF-backed Kerala School Teachers Association (KSTA).
The incident comes just two days after the education department quashed the SSLC mathematics exam and ordered a re-examination after it was found that several questions were copied from a model paper prepared by a private institution.
