Respected Vice Chancellor (Delhi University), The annual examinations for B.A. Honours Economics Third Year are being held from 20th April-14th May 2010. Paper no. 9 i.e. Development Theory and Experience was held on 23th April 2010. The question paper left many students stumped as most questions were of a higher difficulty level than previous years'. The guideines set for the paper did not mention that questions of such a tougher level could be asked and also the questions that were asked were not from the previous years' papers pattern. Also, the paper had an excess of theoretical and conceptual questions which led to most students facing time constraints and a majority could not complete their paper on time. We request you to convene a meeting with the student body as well as teachers at the earliest to determine the final outcome i.e. whether a re-exam will be conducted or whether marking will be lenient. The sentiments echoed here are representative of a majority of Delhi University students and we demand immediate corrective action to be taken. NOTE - For all those who are signing the petition, please mention your name and college name so that the university knows that everyone faced the same problems.

I have compiled the formal list of names and colleges to submit to the Vice Chancellor office by tomorrow morning. We are currently drafting a letter outlining the specific discrepancies between the syllabus guidelines and the recent examination paper.

This paper was a joke. Totally unfair to us.

Was in the exam hall and everyone was stressing out. Questions were way out of syllabus. PLEASE look into this DU administration.

The pattern was completely different from anything we prepared for. Nobody could finish in time. We need leniency.
