The National Curriculum and Textbook Board (NCTB) has revised the question structure and mark dis-tribution of three subjects of Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and equivalent examinations.
The three subjects are Bangla, ICT and Finance and Banking, according to a circular of NCTB.
In the Bangla Second Paper, the translation part of the essay section has been removed. Instead, the 10 marks for translation will be allocated for writing a news report.
In the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) subject, the short-answer questions have been removed, and an additional 10 marks have been added to the previous 15 marks of the multiple-choice section, making a total of 25 marks for multiple-choice questions.
In the Finance and Banking subject, there will be a total of 15 short-answer questions, with eight from the finance section and seven from the banking section. Examinees can answer a total of 10 questions, including a minimum of four from any section.
