Others 9405 views 9 replies

hi everyone just now gave my ca final law paper.

it was easy paper. but i made a  very big mistake

in two question of 8 marks & 4 marks each

i answered correctly but quoted wrong section.

i have heard from my professor that in such case examiner will give u "0" zero marks.

are there any chances if getting some marks.

No, what u'v heard is wrong. Marks are not deducted if section is not quoted, but u may loose a mark for quotation of the wrong section, i.e, say the provisions that u'v written are 100% correct, but the section quoted is wrong, u'l get a 7 instead of 8 inspite of the answer having been absolutely correct. You will not get a flat zero.

thanks ritika. hope whatever u says is true then  i get some marks

 

Dont worry. You will not get a 0, but I think that you will neither get 6or7 out of 8. My guess would be around 5 out of 8 if your answer is perfect in all other respects except section number.

 

Just consider the following 2 situations:

Situation 1: Fully correct answer but wrong Section no. quoted

Situation 2: Fully correct answer but no sections are quoted at all

 

I think situation 2 will fetch you more marks than situation 1.

 

Be careful for your DT & IDT papers

 

Best of luck

they are profesionals & doing for a long time,it's not new thing,but one should not mention wrong sections,if u r not sure,further if u answered the question well shall award u the marks anyway.

it is better not to mention a section no if u dont know exactly.
if we are going to loose 1mark for not mentioning a sec,then y to losse more marks by quoting a wrong sec..
think in this way........

THE SAME QUES I ASKED TO  A FACULTY OF MY ORIENTATION PROGRAMME....HE IS THE CHAIR PERSONNEL...OF ICAI KOLKATA....

HE SAID...HE CHECK LAW PAPERS WHETHER IS INTER/FINAL PATIENTLY...

"IF U ARE WRITING SECTIONS BE 100% ABOUT IT...EITHER YOU WILL NOT GET ANY MARKS FOR THAT ANSWER"

HE ALSO PROVIDED THE REASON FOR THAT....

FOR EXAMPLE A QUES IS GIVEN...IN PAPER RAGARDING.....NON PROFIT ORGANISATION....

INSTEAD OF WRITING SECTION 25...U WROTE SECTION 24....THAT MEANS U DONT KMOW THE SECTION REGARDING...NON PROFIT ORGANISATION....AND THAT MEANS U ALSO DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE SECTION 24 ALSO....

bullsh*t. u cant slaught down the whole answer for not writing the section correctly. may be one mark is deducted for wrong quote but not the entire marks. who made him the chairman?

 

You may loose some marks but not the whole marks..be sure.

Not the entire answer will be wrong. The examiner will cut marks for the wrong section definitely.
