Comed-K-exams


Bangalore, May 7: A total of nine students were debarred from the Comed-K?examination conducted across the State on Sunday.


Two students held for malpractice in Tumkur have been handed over to the police.

A ?S?Srikanth, Chief Executive Officer, Comed-K, said suitable action would be initiated against the candidates caught for malpractice during the test.

The Consortium had earlier announced that students caught for malpractice would not only be debarred from taking up the Comed-K test again, but a request would be made to all examination authorities across the country to ban such students from appearing for any entrance test. The details of debarred students will be uploaded on the website of all colleges.

Comed-K authorities said of the 80,700 students who enrolled for the test, 85 per cent appeared for Physics and Chemistry papers, 81 per cent for Biology and 88 per cent for Mathematics.

The answer keys of all the papers were hosted on the Comed-k website - www.comedk.org - later at night.

‘Fairly easy’

Most students found the test papers fairly easy though they felt they did not get sufficient time to complete the Mathematics paper.

Arnab Banerjee, a student of Loyola School in Ranchi, said with adequate preparation, the exam was well within the reach of students.

Banerjee, who has applied for BITSAT, AIEEE and entrance exams of other states, says he is keen on securing a seat in Karnataka as he perceives it to be a safe place for students.

Chaitanya Shashikanth, a medical seat aspirant said, “Overall it was good. Biology paper was the easiest of the lot.

I am confident of getting more than 80 per cent of the answers right.” Results of the examination are expected on June 8.
