Computer Science paper `tricky'

Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: Students of Class XII appearing at the Computer Science examination of the Central Board of Secondary Education on Thursday complained that the paper was tough.

Complaining that some questions were confusing, students said a two-mark question (1-E) was "very tricky" and most students opted not to attempt it.

"The paper was set for above average students and the pattern of the question paper was different from previous years. It was a paper that could have been solved only by students who have studied every concept in the textbook. And though the two-mark question (1-E) was tricky it wasn't a wrong question," said Bhawna Sachdev, a Computer Science teacher at Holy Child School.

Answer-sheets damaged

A "handful" of answer-sheets of the Class X Board examinations were "damaged" in a fire which broke out due to a short-circuit at Ludlow Castle School No. 1 in North Delhi early on Thursday morning.
