Cancellation of Telangana state Intermediate board and SSC examinations


Cancellation of Telangana state Intermediate board and SSC examinations
The Issue
The inter theory exams in telangana are to be held from may 1 to 19 as per schedule, while the SSC exams from may 17 to 26. Due to the pandemic, schools and colleges were shut across the state forcing students to attend classes online. While many students struggled to make arrangements to attend the classes, most educational institutions run by the government- due to lack of resources required for online classes failed to conduct the classes. As a result, most colleges failed even to finish 50% of the entire syllabus meant for the academic year of 2020-2021. It is unfair to expect students to attend the exams without proper knowledge of what they will be facing. Online classes- no matter how good the teacher is, fall short to fulfill the student's attempt at understanding what is being taught. Students will fail to give their best without classroom sessions and proper guidance. It is unfair for the educational boards to conduct exams and expect students to put their best foot forward. We- as students can agree that it has been difficult to grasp concepts through online classes and lack of personal coaching all year long.
Postponing the exams will hamper the natural flow of the academic year and put unnecessary pressure on the already stressed students. We as students- who are the worst hit by these exams, urge you to cancel them for students across the state and to keep in mind the amount of stress each student is going through due to various reasons- the upfront of which stands the stress of preparing for the exams WITHOUT PROPER GUIDANCE AND SYLLBUS COMPLETION.
