Additional Marks for Intermediate Part-I Students:

In other recent developments, the Board of Intermediate Education Karachi BIEK has decided to grant up to 15% additional marks to students in pre-engineering, pre-medical, and general science part I. This decision follows the directives of Sindh Caretaker Chief Minister Justice Retd Maqbool Baqar. The caretaker CM approved the recommendations of a fact-finding committee, which was established to investigate the issue of intermediate part-I students receiving unusually low marks this year. As a result, it has been decided that students will be awarded 15 extra marks in Mathematics, 12 in Physics, Chemistry, and Statistics each, and six in Zoology and Botany each.
