(d) The Paper-Setters for the Alternative Paper in English for the Matriculation Examination should keep in view, when framing the questions, the fact that many candidates whose vernacular is not English, are compelled to take up the Alternative Paper in English in as much as their vernacular is not recognised by the University.

4. Gentlemen appointed to set the examination papers are requested to write in the margin opposite to each question, the maximum number of marks they intend to assign to it.

PART I-44.

6. The examination papers, in duplicate, written very legibly on one side only of foolscap paper, are to be sent by post in a sealed and registered double cover to the Controller at his office. No copy of any examination paper is to be retained by the gentlemen setting it.

7. The papers set shall be submitted to the Controller with a certification over the joint signatures of the persons appointed that the papers conform to the prescribed conditions and do not involve a material variation from the average standard.

(c) EXAMINATION OF PAPERS

8. Examiners will be expected to be present in Calcntta during the exa. mination in the subjects for which they have been specially appointed.

9. When the answers to a paper or half-paper are divided between two Examiners, they shall determine, at a meeting, the standard to be adopted, and compare their marks at a meeting, before submitting them.

10. Each Examiner shall be furnished with a roll containing the names and numbers of all the candidates to be examined by him in which he shall enter the total number of marks, assigned to each candidate in each paper. The total number of marks must in every case be a whole number; if the roll submitted by an Examiner contains fractional marks it will be returned to him for correction.

11. The Examiners shall mark on each answer paper the marks assigned to each question, as well as the total marks.

12. The Examiners are required to examine the papers of the candidates in the order in which their names appear on the roll, and at the end of each week send to the Controller or to the Head Examiner, as the case may be, the pages of the roll containing the marks assigned to the papers examined. The number of papers examined each week is expected to be fairly proportionate to the total number of papers to be examined within the time prescribed. The attention of the Examiners is specially directed to this rule, and the Registrar is required to report to the Syndicate, after the examinations are over, any case of infraction of this or any other rule.

13. To facilitate the work of re-examination, the Examiners or the Head Examiners, as the case may be, shall keep the answer papers of the candidates arranged in the order in which their names appear in the roll.

In cases in which there is a Head Examiner, the re-examination may be done by the Head Examiner himself or by one or more of the Assistant Examiners at his discretion.

14. The answer papers shall be returned to the Controller as soon as the work of re-examination is over.

15. Six weeks before the Matriculation, Intermediate, B.A. and B.Sc. Examinations take place, the Syndicate shall fix the latest date for sending in marks. The time allowed for the re-examination of answar papers shall be four days for 100 papers and under, and one day additional for every 25 papers, or portion whereof, over 100, Sundays being excluded.

In the case of the B.A. Examination 30 half-papers shall, for the purposes of this rule, be taken to be equivalent to 25 papers.

Where an Examiner has over 100 papers or half-papers to re-examine, he shall send in the marks of these papers by instalments of 100 or less, as the re-examination of them is completed.

If any Examiner fails to send in his marks within the limits of time prescribed for examination and re-examination, the amount of his remuneration shall be reduced by Rs. 16 for each day by which he exceeds that period.

16. Each Examiner shall write his name and the subject of the examina. tion at the foot of every page of his roll.

17. No entry shall be made in the roll against the name of any candidate from whom no paper is received.

If, owing to unavoidable circumstances, any Examiner who has set a paper is unable to attend the meeting, the remaining Examiners, contemplated by this Regulation, shall meet and transact the afore. said business.

For this purpose a meeting of the Examiners in each subject shall be held as soon as possible after the close of the examination, at which provisional rules shall be drawn up.
