Consider this, how feasible is it to finish writing a three hour paper at 6 in the evening, reach home at 7.30 and study for the next paper which is to be given at 11 the next morning? We are talking about a cumulative 350 pages here. The entire year's portion. HSC marks are what define whether or not we as students get the course of our choice and inconvenient exam timings shouldn't jepordise that. Sociology, being a scoring subject shouldn't have the disadvantage of being given a mere 15 hours (considering the person chooses to stay up all night studying it). The argument maybe that after all the time we have had we shouldn't need more time but I beg to differ. It is subjective to every person's retaining capacity and 15 hours is not enough for a student who has to thoroughly revise their portion prior to the exams. It is my sincere request to the HSC board of Maharashtra to reconsider this timetable and possibly shift the Sociology examination to a more convenient date.
