Students attempting Class XII central board
of secondary education (CBSE) examination were joyful and relaxed as the
English examination conducted on Thursday was easy and scoring. Students from
science stream were already in planning mode for their upcoming main papers
including Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biology.
Commerce students were celebrating in
eateries and cafes after the examination. One such group in a café in Vijay Nagar
shared, “English is one such subject, where we all can pass, but if we get to
score well then it helps in pushing up the overall percentage. The examination
conducted today was unexpectedly easy and scoring. All of us are sure that we
will score over 65 out of 80 marks and overall over 75 for sure in the subject,
i.e. distinction!”
Shubhi D’Souza from another group of
students said, “I was delighted as I saw the paper, because section A, i.e.
unseen passages was quite easy and that is where, I normally lose marks.” She
is sure of scoring full marks in the section.
Shubham Kelkar, a student from Humanities
stream, said, “I found literature section a little challenging, but it was
manageable. So, unless I lose too many marks in the section C, I can expect to
score really well in the paper.”
Disha Patidar, a student from science
stream, said, “I am happy because I could complete the paper in time and I did
better than expected in section B, i.e. writing. Grammar portion was also easy,
so I feel lucky today.”
Jehan Hussian, a student from commerce
stream, said, “There were some questions that were similar to previous year’s
paper, so I did not have to think twice before answering them and that helped
me in completing the paper in time.”
