PANJIM, JAN 2
While the medical examination at Goa Medical College (GMC) is underway, questions of ‘General Medicine (Paper II)’ has reportedly been ‘leaked’ to students of fourth year MBBS.
Herald is in possession of the three sets of questions, of which one set is to appear today.
Each unit has got three sets sealed in three separate envelops, one of which is opened at the Goa University minutes before the three-hour long exam starts at GMC.
It is also reportedly learnt that General Medicine (Paper I) was also disclosed to the students before it was answered by them on January 1.
Herald is in possession of the three sets of Paper I as well, of which the second set of 16 questions matched the question set answered by the medicine students on Saturday. 
Sources said that students answering their papers every alternate day were told which questions would appear. The students are scheduled to answer ‘pediatrics’ paper on Wednesday.
“The three sets of questions of both General Medicine papers were dictated to the students, saying that one of these sets will appear for the exams. The students were accordingly asked to prepare for the exams,” the source alleged.
Few of those questions in General Medicine (paper I) included short notes and short answers of 10 marks each on management of rheumatoid arthritis and approach to a patient with 14 days fever, coronary angiography and so on in section I.
Section II of the same question paper had questions like causes and complications of cirrhosis, chorea and so on. Each medical paper consists of 60 marks.
Several attempts to contact the GMC Dean Dr V Jindal and Medical Superintendent Dr Rajan Kunkolienkar turned futile as they neither answered to phone calls by Herald nor replied to text messages till late Sunday night.
Health Minister Vishwajeet Rane also declined answering phone calls and neither replied to the text messages.
“This is a very serious matter…I will speak to the Dean,” a senior examiner told Herald.
