“My exam went very well and I should score well. Most of my classmates also found the question paper to be easy. All the 14 questions that we had to attempt along with the choices given were easy for anyone who had practiced different types of questions before the exams as part of his/her preparation,” he claimed.

In agreement was his classmate Shashank Shukla who too had opted “Standard Mathematics” for the exam.

“The overall level of toughness of the questions asked was good and not too tough. I also did not find the question paper to be lengthy in any way,” he said.

Mathematics teacher at Ganga Gurukulam, Phaphamau in Prayagraj Devesh Singh said that the questions asked were fully from within the syllabus.

“The ‘Basic Mathematics” section was straight as per NCERT pattern and students did not find it tough. As for the “Standard Mathematics” part, the questions were of above-average toughness as it should be for students wishing to pursue Mathematics in higher classes later on. Any student who had worked upon his concepts would have done well in it,” he maintained.
