Kollam: The Kerala State Higher Secondary exams for Plus One Mathematics, held on Thursday, were reportedly compromised when a set of 40-mark questions was leaked on a WhatsApp channel. The questions were shared a day before the exam, on Wednesday morning, with minor variations under the title "predicted questions."

The leaked questions, including Numbers 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 12, 13, 14, and 15, appeared in the exam exactly as they were in the channel. Questions 7 and 19 were shared with slight modifications. Students who accessed the WhatsApp channel on Wednesday found it easier to attempt the exam, while others who were unaware of the leak found the exam more challenging.

According to reports, similar leaks happened in the Chemistry and English exams as well. Both students and teachers have raised concerns over repeated question leaks, attributing them to unauthorised interactions between certain teachers who prepare the questions and those conducting online classes.
