New format unique & contemporary: 'S'-shaped seating pattern; OMR-based exam in Bengal Higher Secondary 3rd semester to curb cheating
KOLKATA: An S-shaped seating pattern is set to debut in the semester-based Higher Secondary examination to be held from Sept 8 to Sept 22 to prevent students from cheating. West Bengal Higher Secondary Council has split the HS exam into four semesters, with students taking the 1st and 2nd semester exams in Class 11 and 3rd and 4th in Class 12. The 2026 HS batch will write their 3rd semester exam this Sept. It will have multiple-choice questions and be held on OMR sheets. "The seating plan should be in an 'S' pattern. There should not be more than two examinees on each bench," the Council has said.

The alternating pattern will continue throughout the classroom. A set of question paper will still be placed at the designated spot even if a student is absent so as not to break the pattern. No examinee will be allowed to leave the hall before the end of the 75-minute examination. Except in extreme cases they will also not be allowed to use the washroom. "Multiple sets of question papers will be distributed to discourage cheating because answers to MCQs are easy to copy. The pattern we have planned will make students ready for competitive exams and make the process transparent," said HS Council president Chiranjib Bhattacharjee. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like [국가인증] 키성장 인증받은 '이 제품' 2개월치 무료증정 이벤트 곧 마감! 아이클타임 더 알아보기 Undo Sample OMR sheets will be uploaded soon to help students with their preparation.

As many as 13,671 students took part in the written exam held on Saturday (July 5), organised by Pune Zilla Parishad (ZP) and the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA) as part of the Curious Rural Student Exposure Programme. (HT PHOTO) As part of the initiative, a three-stage process is being conducted to select 75 students from ZP schools who will have the opportunity to visit the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) in Bengaluru and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in Washington, D.C. The first stage of the exam was conducted across 141 exam centres in Pune district. Out of 16,121 students who registered, 13,671 students appeared for the written test, officials said. 'The first stage of the exam was conducted offline in MCQ format. All students from Zilla Parishad schools in classes 6 and 7 are eligible to apply. The second test will be conducted in online mode on July 19, followed by personal interviews,' said Sameer Dhurde, scientific officer at IUCAA. A final interview round will then determine the 75 students, 50 of whom will visit ISRO, and 25 will be selected for an exposure visit to NASA. The initiative, which was formally launched on April 25 through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between IUCAA and Pune Zilla Parishad, aims to ignite scientific curiosity in rural children by giving them direct exposure to world-leading space agencies. A year-long enrichment programme featuring hands-on workshops, activities, science expert lectures, and guided tours to science centres is also part of the plan. 'This kind of global exposure is rare for rural students. We're proud to be offering them this opportunity,' said Gajanan Patil, chief executive officer (CEO) of Zilla Parishad Pune. Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar, present at the MoU signing, had earlier praised the initiative saying 'Visits to ISRO and NASA will not only educate but also inspire our rural students to dream big.' The program focuses on bridging the gap between rural and urban access to advanced science education and promoting equal opportunities for scientific discovery.
