CBSE There were errors in class 10 English exam, claim students and experts. While some questions had no choice but others had only question but no option. Experts claim that the students had to mark the correct answer option which became difficult for them with errors. Apart from this, there were many spelling errors in the question paper.
“The main error in the paper was in question number 13 and question 14 as there were no questions but only options,” said Deepti Sahni, dean of innovation at Silverline Prestige School, Ghaziabad.

Due to errors, teachers believe that students may get confused and get low marks due to confusion. “Incomplete questions and confusion in options marked the beginning of the exam. Overall the paper was difficult as the given choices were very close. As per the feedback given by the students, the paper was long and difficult,” said Anshu Arora, principal of Amity International School, Sector 43 Gurugram
“Students were framed by questions 13 and 14 where they were subjected to choices but no questions. Simple words like ‘SHOULD’ were misspelled in the paper to frustrate the teachers. In Q41, the two wrong choice inversions were identical,” said Roma Suri, Department of English, Shiv Nadar School, Noida.
“There were six questions which could have multiple correct options as they were assumption-based. A mature person will definitely reach for different options than a young student. An English paper is supposed to boost a student’s morale, but a 24 sheet paper can be a harrowing experience for at least one student.”
