No KCET 2024 Re-Exam
KCET 2024: Following objections from students and considering the burden and stress of preparing again for the exams, the state government has dropped the idea of holding the KCET re-exam 2024, and has decided not to evaluate out-of-syllabus questions from the assessment. This states, that over 20% of the questions in the four KCET subjects: Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Biology will not be considered.
Students will be assessed on the remaining questions only. Earlier, KEA has received 4,000 objections from students over several out-of-syllabus questions asked in KCET 2024. However, to avoid such a situation in future, the KEA has been demanded to prepare a detailed standard operating procedure for setting question papers for the CET.
As per reports by The Hindu, Srikar M.S., Principal Secretary, Department of Higher Education, said: “Keeping in view the Expert Committee report and opinion of many stakeholders and the paramount interest of protecting the legitimate interests of the students in mind, the KEA is directed to remove questions that are out of 2023-24 syllabus from the assessments, and assess only the remaining questions.”
No KCET 2024 Re-Exam
The Hindu further reports that KEA stated, “There are a number of exams that are being conducted in May and June, including COMEDK, JEE (Advanced), NEET, NEST, CUET and the second and third annual exams of II PUC. The government is of the view that conducting a re-exam at this stage will cause undue hardship and burden to the students. Since there are several other exams that the students have to write, re-conducting the CET will cause unnecessary panic and harassment. Further, it would be causing undue hardship for the students for no fault of theirs. The academic calendar for professional courses will also get delayed if a re-examination is proposed.”
