At the meeting, Union Minister for Education, Dr. Myo Thein Gyi, said that the most important thing for successfully holding the 2019 matriculation examination is the examinees need to know about the rules for the conduct of examination, and examination administrators and examiners are responsible for knowing the rules beforehand. Based on the rules and regulations book published by Department of Myanmar Examination strengths are to be strengthened and weaknesses are to be reviewed and improved. In the 2019 matriculation examination there’ll be an increase in balanced easy, fair and difficult questions that promote contemplation.
