Meanwhile, a teacher of a government school in Mogappair noted that the question paper has been easy for students who have prepared well. While those unprepared must have struggled to face a few questions.
"The eight-mark question in the paper had been asked from the second part of the Tamil book, which is little different from how the question paper is usually prepared," said the government teacher.
