The school principal said he had not received any complaint so far.Starting with the first question, which asks about the longest and heaviest bone in the human body, the rest of the paper was set on the same pattern as a sample paper from a guide book called 'Together with Biology: Class 12', said some students Tuesday.Sana Ahmed, who had taken the paper Monday, said it was only after she came out of the examination hall that she realised the paper was a copy.Jamia is an autonomous university and sets its own examination papers.
