Some questions required lengthy answers and were therefore, time taking. The Map work came as expected. The ICSE geography paper 2024 assessed different aspects of knowledge and skills.
“In Part A, we encountered a variety of questions, multiple-choice questions (MCQs), map interpretation, and critical thinking exercises. In toposheet and map students had to apply their geographical knowledge to analyse and interpret spatial information. This section demanded a clear understanding of concepts and ability to think critically to solve problems and answer questions accurately,” said Shagun Sen and Harshit Vaibhav both students of City Montessori School, RDSO branch.
“Students said that Part B questions were more complex and required higher-level thinking skills compared to Part A. Despite being challenging, these questions were manageable as we had prepared well and had a strong grasp of the subject matter. The paper ensured a comprehensive evaluation of geographical understanding and critical thinking skills,” said Vaibhav Srivastava, Ashvee and Ayush Chauhan all from CMS RDSO campus.
Manoneet Bajpai of a student of City Montessori School Kanpur Road campus said “Paper was good with easy MCQs based on reading ,all discussed in classes” Rohi Sachan and Atiksh Srivastava of CMS Kanpur Road campus said, “The theory part was a bit lengthy. Map work and topography questions were as practised so we didn’t face much difficulty”
