Mangalore, May 30 : Like every year, this year too there are incidents of errors in valuation and declaration of PU results. In an incident reported at Katipalla, Ramya, a student of Sri Narayana Guru PU College, who was declared failed with 0 mark in accountancy paper, applied for revaluation. As it turns out, she not only passed, but even secured a first class!
There are several instances where students undergo mental stress when they get unexpected results in the examinations. Ramya too went through a similar situation after learning she secured no marks for her hard work and even for what she knew were correct answers.
What added to her agony was the fact that she did not receive the photocopy of her answer sheets on time from the PU board (There is an option in Karnataka to apply for photocopy of answer sheets for a nominal fee). Hence she was forced to apply for re-examinations. But, thanks to the principal of college who had faith in Ramya's ability, he pushed for revaluation of accountancy paper. On Thursday, May 29 the college received the revaluated marks.
Earlier Ramya had scored a total of 349, now she has been declared first class with 419 marks, and in accountancy paper, she scored a solid 70!
The new difficluty she is facing is of admission, as all major colleges have closed their admissions for degree courses.
