Goof-ups in question papers prepared by JNTU-Hyderabad continue to haunt Eamcet aspirants, with experts and students pointing out four purported errors in the engineering exam question paper — three in physics and one in maths, on Saturday.
Five errors were also reported in the medical exam question paper. A question each in physics and botany has more than one option as correct, while two quest-ions in chemistry has more than one option as correct. Besides, there was also a printing error in one of the questions in physics.
Dubbing Questions No. 86, 93, 109 and 116 in the engineering paper (Code-D) “erroneous”, experts and students urged Eamcet officials to either award four grace marks or delete the questions from valuation.
The Eamcet committee had admitted to three errors last year and deleted th-em from valuation. This year, it has decided to refer the errors to experts, who will examine them and submit a report within a week. Eamcet convenor Prof N.V. Ramana Rao, said, “We will release the preliminary key on May 13 and seek objections, if any, on the initial key. Anyone can bring errors to our notice within a week. Subject exp-erts will examine whether they were indeed erroneous and based on that, we will release the final key along with Eamcet results.” The date on which the results would be announced is yet to be finalised, he said.
