The BMS (Bachelor of Management studies) students, victims
of a “shockingly poor” result have now decided
to approach the VC once again. The result on 7th Feb had proved to be a
nightmare for a large number of students of Bachelor of Business management
with more than 50 percent students out of total of around 12000 students failing; most of them in
Financial Management paper with marks in “single digits”. Out of 109 students in Burhani college, 60
students have failed, out of which 53 have not cleared the FM paper. 10
students had less than 10 marks, and one even had zero. Similar is the case with other colleges too
and the result varies from 20 to 50 per cent. Students who have more than 70
per cent overall percentage have also fallen prey to this anomaly.
Even professors accept the fact that there was ambiguity in
the model answers which could be a reason for the miserable failing of such a
big number of students. There are cases
where students have been marked absent despite having answered the paper.
The students had written a letter to the University
officials bringing to their notice this unusual result and urging them to look
into the matter. Controller of Examination Padma Deshmukh had asked the
students to apply for revaluation and had asked the computer department to get
the paperwise passing rate and assured to fix the anomaly if any. But in practice, it takes a month to get the
photocopy and then the students can apply for revaluation. And the reexamination
is scheduled to be held on 9th of April. Secondly, according to the
existing rule of revaluation, the students who have scored less than 40 per
cent of minimum passing marks can not apply for revaluation. So now the
students have decided to submit a letter with signature of BMS students from
various colleges urging the VC to intervene in this matter and first of all
allow all those who are willing to apply for revaluation, and secondly to order
an re assessment of the papers because the suspected anomaly would badly affect
the future of a large number of students.
