BIE's bad news for failed students : Enrolled Before 2007-08 Need To Write All Papers

Posted On: 14/11/2011 Updated On:

Clearing Intermediate may prove to be tough for 20,000-odd students from now onwards. As per the new Board of Intermediate Education (BIE) rules, students who fail in one subject should reappear for all subjects to clear the exam, unlike the earlier stipulation demanding that they clear just those papers in which they failed. The new rule, which came out with the IPE-2012 notification, is applicable to students who enrolled for the Intermediate before the 2007-08 academic year.

Intermediate lecturers said that BIE’s decision could jeopardise the future of several students who are yet to clear backlog papers. “If the students are finding the backlogs difficult to clear, how will they be able to clear all eight papers? The board should repeal this rule,” said Madhusudan Reddy, general secretary, Government Junior Lecturers’ Association.

The rule will be an obstacle for several students who wish to pursue their higher studies, lecturers said. “Students from weaker sections will be the most affected since they would not be able to afford coaching for every paper. Students from government schools will also be hit by the new rule,” lecturers said. Government schools record a high number of unsuccessful candidates in Inter exams who have failed to clear just one or two papers. Lecturers said the rule would deny several students the opportunity to apply for government jobs.
