Explanation of the new format
Under the revised system, semesters one and three contain multiple choice questions designed to encourage logic and analytical thinking, while semesters two and four focus on short answer and growth quotient questions to maintain writing skills.
Council chairman Chiranjib Bhattacharya had earlier said, “More than 38 lakh OMR sheets are being scanned. There may be a delay in publishing the results as there will be festival holidays in the next one month. But we are confident of publishing it by October 31.”
