A conclusion to all confusion

Looks like there is an answer finally for a question that was haunting all the +2 students’ minds for many months now. I think the current batch is the most unlucky batch in recent times. First, their syllabus was updated to include advanced topics (college level portions) inadditon to what was already there. They received their books just a couple of months before they started their academic year. I think the usual trend is students start preparing for +2 right from the mid of their +1 year. The blueprint for the question paper was revised umpteen number of times and they finally got it only in the month of December, just 2 months before the actual exam. While +2 students usually start going to entrance coaching classes from December, this batch students were forced to drop out from coaching classes they already enrolled since the government announced that there will be no entrance exams this year. And usually, the state entrance exams are conducted within a month after the board exams so the students can finally get it over with and concentrate on other national level entrance tests. This time they have sit with it for another month and not to mention how many other entrance test dates are going to be around or overlap with these dates. All the Tamilnadu government has achieved is putting the students to so much turmoil. I seriously pity them. I can only wish they overcome all this and come out with flying colors.

This is another example of JJ's way of governance - announce something controversial and then back out (or forced to back out, in this case). Just that the students have been made the scapegoats in this particular case.

Sesh,

2 months delay in itself is bad and to top that there are elections in between on May 8th. Just think of all the noise pollution these people will cause with loudspeakers in the name of campaign. Its gonna be real tough for the students to even concentrate.

Filby,

Very true. I hope atleast in future these politicians think all the consequences before they try to make a decision instead of announcing something in a hurry and backing off later.
