Several professors have been asking about clarity on the 2020 Board exam schedule and practical exams. Some of them have also called for eliminating practical exams and grading students based on end-of-year assignments.
Previously, Mr. Pokhriyal had a live session with students on December 10 to discuss upcoming entrance and board exams, including JEE Main 2021 and NEET 2021.
In his latest webinar, answering a similar question, Mr. Ramesh Pokhriyal said that if students cannot visit their schools to do lab work, alternatives to practical exams should be explored.
