I don't know the standard of education nowadays. When I was doing my 10th Board examinations, I remember being given the Question paper 15 minutes ahead of the answer sheets to read the instructions. If the school authorities issued a wrong circular, fine they are at fault.

But, clearly if the education level has gone so low, that 10th standard students are unable to comprehend basic instructions, there is something else to be worried about other than the school's circulars.
