“I cleared the entrance test for admission to a deemed university but could not attend counselling as the class XII results were not out,” said H. Mubina, student of a CBSE school. The fact that CBSE class X results were declared at an unexpected time, around 6 in the evening, has added to the woes of many students. “I kept checking the websites every now and then to see if there was any announcement regarding the results,” said Mubina.
Students applying for programmes in Singapore were a worried lot, too.
