Indore: Error In DAVV MBA Exam Paper Sparks Student Concerns, Probe Ordered

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): An error in MBA first semester exam paper at Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) has once again raised concerns among students. The issue emerged in "Accounting for Manager" subject paper, where no options were provided for the questions forcing students to attempt all of them.

The exam, conducted on Saturday as part of the university's first semester MBA  exam that began on February 11, had a flawed question paper structure. The original format required students to choose one out of two questions in Part 'A' and four out of six in Part 'B'.

However, the paper presented only four questions in total leaving students without the necessary choices. Students raised their objections during the exam itself but were instructed to continue solving the paper. Dissatisfied, they submitted a formal complaint to university officials on Monday, demanding a resolution.

They argued that the lack of question choices affected their performance, putting them at a disadvantage. Exam controller Prof Ashesh Tiwari acknowledged the error and confirmed that the matter has been forwarded to the examination committee. "A decision will be taken based on the committee’s report, ensuring that students’ concerns are addressed fairly," he stated.
