Her classmate and also a student of BBS International School, Gohri in Prayagraj Alok Sharma agreed.

Yogendra Kumar, also a student of Prayag Public School, Lalgopalganj in Prayagraj said that his exam also went very well.

“Even the question of “Map” wherein we had to identify the location of the given power plant, airport and nuclear plant was easy enough and I got it right despite being a little wary of Map-based questions,” he shared.

Social science teacher of Ganga Gurukulam school, Phaphamau in Prayagraj Kusum Srivastava said that all questions of the social science exam including from the sections of civics, history and geography were along expected lines keeping in line with the CBSE pattern and the NCERT standards. “The question paper did not hold any surprises for the students and most would have done well,” she claimed.
