Scrutiny fee abolished for first-year exams in Karachi

Karachi: The Intermediate Board has abolished the scrutiny fee for first-year papers.

According to the Inter Board announcement, special counters have been set up for female students in the board office, and instructions have also been issued to the examination supervisor to complete the scrutiny within 30 days.

The announcement states that students can download the scrutiny form from the official website of the Inter Board.

A committee consisting of senior teachers has also been formed on the results of the first-year exams.

It is pertinent to note that the intermediate results have limited the possibilities of Karachi students to go to professional educational institutions.

In the first year of intermediate, 66 percent of students in the pre-medical group and 74 percent in the pre-engineering group failed.

Recently removed from office, the chairman of the Karachi Inter Board, Amir Hussain Qadri, while defending the results, said that he had full responsibility and that these results were as per merit. The results have been re-examined after receiving complaints, and he is also ready to show the answer copies to satisfy the students.
