The students rued the “flawed exam system” adopted by the authorities, saying that the present system has marred the credibility of examinations.They said that such issues have taken place “in the past as well but nobody is paying heed to the students, thus continuing to set question papers outside the syllabus.”
“Most of the questions on physics papers were not from the prescribed syllabus,” students said, adding that the “authorities must look into the matter and fulfill the genuine demands of students at an earliest.”
The students also complained of poor arrangement including “lighting and heating facilities during the examinations for the students” stating that they “are facing immense hardships during examinations.”
BOSE chairperson Veena Pandita said that they didn’t receive any such complaint from the class 11th students.

However, she said that they had received the complaint about outside  syllabus paper from class 12th students in physics subject. “We have constituted a committee to examine the facts,” she added.
