They could not tell a triangle from a circle. One of them said a trikon (triangle) has four sides and another student could not point out set two integers on a line bar, while many of them failed to solve two-digit multiplication and subtraction. Some appeared honest and wrote avadtu nathi (do not know) on their answer sheets.

All these 500 Class X students, who gave the these answers to basic questions during a hearing session Tuesday on suspected cases of copying at the Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board (GSHSEB) headquarters here, had scored more than 80 per cent — a few even scoring 90-95 per cent — in the objective section (50 per cent of the total marks) of their mathematics paper in the board exams, results of which were announced on May 24. Also, all these students scored zero in the subjective section.
