This year yet again, the CBSE set a paper for the subject of Business Studies, which was extensively based on Case Studies just like last year's, after the format change. It could be argued that these were slightly harder compared to even last year considering, the lack of clarity in many of the questions. The approach of CBSE is understandable to try and have a more application based approach to the questions to better equip students, yet the flaw in this system is that the students become dependant on outside sources for questions of this perspective. Due to lack of clarity and also the factor that this is still a new format of paper(only the second year) and the fact that it is difficult to prepare without having any official material of this sort being available we would like to request leniency in correction for this year's paper. The importance of the 12th Standard exams are very high and can effect a students future greatly, it would be advisable of the CBSE to evaluate papers in the coming years on the basis of the official material available to students in terms of sample questions officially published or available as part of the textbooks.

The momentum behind this petition proves that our frustration with the Business Studies paper is shared by students across the country. Email your local CBSE regional office today and demand they acknowledge these flaws in the current evaluation process.

This is an important exam and it would simply be unfair that students might lose marks due to the lack of clarity in the question paper. Also, it must be noted and taken into consideration that the format of the paper is still new to the students
Please show liniency. The paper was really tricky and time consuming to understand what the question is really asking for. 3 questions from the paper was really bad..one is the sum, second the communication tool and finally the element of the function.
The paper this year was shockingly bad . It saddens me to say that the standard of the papers has come down. There was utter lack of clarity in the questions asked and many questions had multiple answers. Would request CBSE to correct leniently. Thank you.
Board should consider relaxation. They were few direct questions in the paper but we couldn't do that also properly as we were busy analysing the case studies. The paper we're was very lengthy. The paper can't be completed in 3 hours. Impossible.
I prepared myself for the exam by practising many 2015 question papers as I was expecting application based questions this year too, but this time we had the trickiest questions and unfortunately they were not similar to past years question papers.
Design was different from blue print and question papers was made according to there wish
Tatte jitne bhi bade kyu na ho jaye, rehte lund ke niche hi hai

First of all we got only 1 day for Bst and on top of this we got a very difficult paper. This isn't fair CBSE. How do you expect a person to remember everything in just a single day. Cbse there are avg students too studying. Every one is not a topper.
