SEVERAL months back I submitted an application for reassessment of my Class XI scripts of Urdu Composition-I and English Composition-I at the Federal Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education.

The application was accompanied by a prescribed fee. However, the authorities concerned failed to act despite several online reminders followed by a complaint.

I had obtained 90 per cent marks in matriculation but marks obtained by me in FSc were much less.

Will the federal board ever bother to reassess my papers? In the alternative, it should return the application fee to me.
