Simple spelling questions on the Bihar Board Exam confuse students; a viral video
Social media in Bihar has been sparked by a viral video that shows kids having trouble spelling simple phrases on their board examinations. Students who just took the intermediate exams—specifically, the English test on February 3rd—are featured in the video. After the test, a local reporter went up to the students outside the testing centers and asked them basic spelling questions. She discovered that a large number of them could not answer.
In the video, which was posted on the Instagram page @bharatmanchlive, the reporter tests the students on spellings related to political science and basic English, exposing a startling lack of understanding among the candidates. After finishing the three-hour written exam, pupils were given simple questions to answer, but they had trouble pronouncing and spelling terms like English. “The female students who appeared for the English exam do not know the spelling of English,” says the caption that goes with the video.
garnered attention on social media, surprising viewers. A lot of people used astonished emojis to show their amazement, while several people made ironic comments regarding the state’s educational system. The film gained a lot of attention, as seen by the millions of views it earned in spite of the sarcastic remarks.
Along with the popular video, the Bihar Board has been in the news for expanding its program to provide students outside of its board free medical and engineering tutoring. This opportunity, which was formerly exclusive to Bihar Board students, is now open to students who are associated with the CBSE and ICSE boards. The objective of this decision is to assist students from diverse academic backgrounds and increase access to educational opportunities.
The obstacles and prospects in Bihar’s education system are highlighted by the twin storyline of the pupils’ hardships in the viral film and the Bihar Board’s growth of educational programs. The former focuses on areas that need development, while the latter emphasizes initiatives aimed at improving educational access and assistance for students from various boards.
