Students' success in such examinations may only be due to their general retentive ability or good memory. External examinations also limit the scope of teachers tend to teach only that part of the course considered useful from examination point of view. So semester system was tried, but it also did not work. Government of Pakistan, in 1998 introduced a parallel system for successful students of intermediate and those interested in getting admission in medical and engineering colleges to encourage merit and to check the unfair means used in intermediate examinations. This examination covers the whole course with no discrimination of staff center and availability for the examination. This is called entry test examination conducted by educational evaluation and testing agency (ETEA). This study aims to ascertain the relationship of examination conducted by Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) and educational evaluation and testing agency (ETEA). \section[{II.}]{II.} \section[{Review of Literature}]{Review of Literature}\par The purpose of public examinations conducts by these boards is clearly that of promotion, selection and certification.\par Khushk and Charistie (2004) claim, "Pakistan is listed among the developing nation of the world. The prevalence of low quality education in the country is one of the major constraints on its development. Minimal use of modern assessment techniques and dependency on traditional learning processes are the significant factor of low quality education in country. At the foundation of Pakistan there was a single examinations board, which was responsible for examining students from all over the country. Since then the number of examination boards has gradually increased to 23 in line with growing numbers of candidate, while the level of quality education in most institutions has not only been improved to satisfy the academic needs of the time but deteriorated due to malpractices in examination".\par "Equity and validity considerations require that no candidate for a particular public examination is granted an unfair advantage over other candidates. An unfair advantage would be obtained, for example, if a student had prior access to an examination paper or received support from an external source during the course of examination. It occurs in the United States among students taking the Scholastic Aptitude tests \hyperref[b11]{(Haney, 1993)} and probably in every other country through out the world. In developing countries, extensive malpractice, including bribery, threats, physical abuse, and a variety of ingenious methods to gain an unfair advantage serve to highlight the importance of public examinations in the lives of the students and of their families".\par The issue of malpractice has become so predominant in Pakistan that the Punjab Commission for Evaluation of Examination System and Eradication of Malpractices (1992) concluded that "Cheating in the examination now knows no bounds. Those who dare and those who wield any kind of authority can do all them want during examinations, without any fear of punitive action. Leaked papers answer books, continuation sheets, and solved examination questions were freely available at a price. Chairmen of BISEs (Boards of Intermediate and Secondary Education) are completely helpless to take action against the faulting examinees, corrupt subordinates and (arc unable) to resist threatening dictates of some bureaucrats, public representatives and gangsters. "\par Given the amount of malpractice associated with public examinations, it is to be expected that, despite the obvious educational advantages of schoolbased assessment, examination bodies in many developing countries have little confidence in marks derived from such assessments. For example, schoolbased assessment was doomed in Srilanka when evidence was produced of work being done by paid outsiders and of unfair advantage for well equipped schools and wealthy students (Kariyawasam, 1993; UCLES, 1990). In China, percentage of "meritorious" students to gain admission to college or university on the basis of school recommendation needs to be examined for possible bias and malpractice \hyperref[b12]{(Hao, 1993)}.\par Efforts to combat or detect malpractice include overseas printing of examination booklets and answer sheets in Bangladesh (UCLES, 1989) and in Kenya (McGuinress). 'Donoghue, Yussufu, \& Kithuka, 1990), administration of oaths of secrecy in Zambia. (Kellaghan, Martin, \& Sheehan, 1989), requiring examination setters to reside in a hotel for two months without outside contact in China (Lewin \& Lu, 1991), comparison of scripts where copying is suspected, and acting on reports of cheating by other candidates in Uganda {\ref (Ongom, 1990)}.\par The problem was faced not only by the underdeveloped countries, but developed countries too were the victims of the same problem, especially in case of students pursuing higher studies in the developed countries. The developed countries introduced Teaching of English as Foreign Language (TOEFL), International English Language Testing System (IELT), Graduate Records Examination (GRE) and Graduate Management Assessment Test (GMAT). TOFEL and IELT have been very affective in analyzing examinees English language proficiency. Lee (2008) \hyperref[b5]{Eiji (2004)} and ken (2004).\par Since Pakistan, was confronted with the same problem. Therefore the government of KPK introduced entry test examination for admitting students to professional colleges through introducing entry test examination. The need for establishing ETEA was felt due to huge discrepancies in marks in various boards. So ETEA was established through ordinance 2001.\par "Whereas it is expedient to provide for the establishment of an independent and autonomous educational testing and evaluation agency in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province for the development of resources and systems for the conduct of educational evaluation and testing for the educational institutions in a transparent, uninfluenced and academically sound manner". The study aimed to achieve the following objectives: i) To compare marks secured in BISE results and marks scored in entry test of pre-medical students. ii) To find out scored differences in BISE results and marks scored in entry test of engineering. \section[{III.}]{III.} \section[{Statement of the Problem}]{Statement of the Problem}\par IV. \section[{Statement of the Hypotheses}]{Statement of the Hypotheses}\par The following hypotheses were tested:\par 1.

Population of the Study and Sample Size}\par The population of this study includes all students of F.Sc in both Pre-Medical \& Pre-Engineering of all boards of Intermediates and Secondary Education in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.\par The sample of study includes 541 students. This includes both Medical and Engineering students, who appeared in BISE examination and entry test examination in 2006, 2007 and 2008, were randomly selected on the basis from the whole population who got 60\% and above marks in both the examinations.\par Out of these 541 students, 344 students from Medical group were randomly selected 15\% sample of the total population, due to small population of engineering group all the 197 students were selected for this study. \section[{VII.

All Boards in KPK may have uniform paper format in all subjects for all students of the province. 2. An inter-boards committee may be constituted to design paper for all boards of the province. 3. The evaluation and marking of those uniform papers can be checked by the examiners selected by the inter-board committee. 4. Selection of the supervisory staff for exam may be based on merit-cum-performance further paper format can discourage the trend of selective study among students and questions in the papers may be concept-based and not based on rote memory. 5. The BISE final results of the students may reflect the overall assessed performance of the students in their respective institutes throughout the year. 6. The BISE boards should work as facilitators to raise the standard of quality education for which the local educational administration may be made effective to check the corruption and loopholes in various boards as they are enjoying unlimited corruptive powers. 7. The checking of papers, tabulation and rechecking and result display may be made transparent and accessible to students so that the hidden deceptive roles of some workers can be highlighted. 8. There may be a uniform policy for rechecking and re-totaling etc, and chances of favor may be totally eliminated. 9. The administrative staff and other managers of board may be appointed on the basis of their subject knowledge, skills and experience. 10. The ETEA papers also need to be prepared with the help of those teachers who are teaching the same courses at intermediate level. 11. The ETEA may device the carbon copy of the answer sheet and key display through internet after the test with which the complaints of the students may be resolved and the discrepancy be removed. 12. These experts may be bound to make the paper according to the textbooks. 13. There may also be some text from practical books of the same level. 14. The board records may always be open for the inspection of various educationists and experts. 15. The reliability and validity of BISE exam results may also be statistically displayed in the yearly. Journals and authorities should be held responsible for the unsatisfactory results lacking the given characteristics of a good test. \hyperref[b15]{16}.
