“After attending long questions, we went for 3-mark questions. There were 10 questions and we were asked to answer seven questions. Then we found two questions out of the syllabus. Had they been from the syllabus, we could have attempted them as well. Similarly, when we attempted 2-mark questions, we found 3 questions out of 10 beyond our prescribed syllabus,” alleged Sagarika Sahu, a student. 

“In the Physics exam yesterday, we came across questions of 27 marks out of the syllabus,” said Sangram Sahu, another student. 

No reaction was received from the CHSE.
