Class 9 biology & chemistry unavailable course books
students dreading annual exams
Karachi, Mar 05: With annual exams barely a month away,
students of Class 9 fear they will not be fully prepared for the chemistry or
biology paper, as textbooks containing questions from these subjects are
unavailable in the market. Previously, the chemistry and biology course
for Class 9 consisted of two portions, but this year, exams are scheduled to
follow a new pattern, according to which the courses have been split into two
separate books. The chemistry Book 1 now comprises inorganic chemistry, and Book
2 covers industrial and organic chemistry. However, the latter has not been
available until recently. As a result, many students have said they doubt they
can even pass the exam. According Majid Ali, a school teacher, it is
difficult to cover the subject matter in such a short amount of time. "If these
books had been made available earlier, students would not face this problem," he
said. Ali also pointed out that with the academic year being reduced to
just 155 days, students were cramming hard and did not have enough time to cover
the course. "Even today, most students do not have Book 2," added Obaidullah
Chaudry, who teaches at a coaching centre. "In fact, many of them have left our
coaching centre since we started teaching Book 2, saying they were not mentally
prepared for it." Students who will sit for the biology exam face a
similar problem. Chaudry said that the biology Book 2 is a summary of the course
in Class 11, including detailed topics about the human body, and is impossible
to cover in one month. "Two to five per cent of the students may manage, but the
average student will not," he predicted. This is not the first time a new
exam pattern has been introduced. A new pattern had also been announced two
years ago, although when the time came, the exam paper was still based on the
old pattern. Currently, many students have said they are confused which pattern
the exams will follow this year, but sources from the Board of Secondary
Education Karachi said that the exam paper would include questions from
Book 2. "We have not issued any circular in this connection. The
previous circular is still applicable and the paper will be made on the new
pattern, thus Book 2 will be included," they said. While sources
maintained that Book 2 could not be ignored, they added that students would have
a choice when answering the questions. "It is very likely that the questions
from Book 2 will be optional," said a source. "For example, if a student has to
attempt five questions in total, he would be given a total of ten questions,
which will increase his choice." According to the source, those who have
not studied Book 1 would still be able to attempt five questions, but would have
no choice. However, those who have partially or completely studied Book 2 will
have a better choice, since they may be able to attempt both the main and the
optional question."
