Toughest board in India

Which is the toughest board?

  • ICSE

    Votes: 10 58.8%
  • CBSE

    Votes: 4 23.5%
  • State Board(Mention which)

    Votes: 3 17.6%

  • Total voters
    17
My mother has been a student of both the boards and she tells me CBSE was nothing in comparion to ICSE.

As a general thing, I really hate the fact that our education boards have to be so damn tough. Yeah sure, in the end you have an edge over college students from everywhere else in the world, but at what cost?

Childhood Rapeage.


One shouldn't be put to tensions and schedules like boards and 4hr tutions AFTER school daily at the age of 14-15. The whole life ahead after college you're going to see a lot of it, let the kids be kids because this time is never coming back. Though they've been making the exams easy after the newspapers used to be filled with kids suiciding because of not performing upto expectations and I heard they finally changed it to a grading system..a lot of children had to end their lives because of these boards, and their parents deserved it for not being supportive.

The pressure of studying in India is so tough. Parents find it hard to face the people in the society if the child doesnt do as well as the children of those people who pass off indirect remarks (sometimes even direct depending upon the people). The school system should change a lot in India. Here are some of the things that I would like to see in Indian schools (all schools in India standardized)

1. Grading system (90-100 will be, 80-89 will be B, and so on). Bring in the GPA system where the grades are accumulated to a scale of 4.0 GPA as maximum. So people wont fight for the 98's and 99's out of 100.

2. Have the minimum passing score at 50 or above. When I went to Chennai last year, I saw lot of children who come to my grandmother for tuition jump in joy because they got 35/100 which is considered as the passing score. While I studied there, 40/100 was the passing score. For god's sake, the passing score has to be 50 or above (60 and above indicates that the student has a good part of it covered). They dont do anything else to know if the student really acquired the knowledge. Atleast keep the score level high enough.

3. Get rid of the 10th board. One board is enough. And the school exam results should not be announced in the newspaper and all that. You get your results from the school. All this hype given to it makes people hyper tensed about the exams and the pressure to be handled is immense.

One more general thing about the schools is, STOP HANDLING THE CHILDREN PHYSICALLY!! Its the responsibility of the parents to bring up the children and make them educated. Even the parents should not resort to physical means to make their children study. For the school staff, its a crime to physically abuse (yes I call it physical abuse) the children because they dont study properly. There is only upto a certain limit that you can ask the child to study. After that, the results of the exams should dictate whether the child moves forward to the next level or not. While I studied in India, the treatment by teachers on students was extremely pathetic (some resorted to violent means like banging a student's head on the desk and nobody from the school's administration knew about it because people were afraid to talk about it).

Actually not even parents have the right to hit or even slap their children.Its just that some children are scared to tell out the truth....

Wholeheartedly agree with you. Cursed be these demon parents who bring about such destruction to their wards! You know, there's a boy in our locality who wakes up at 5:30 AM in the morning to go to school, returns at 1:00 PM, then goes to a 2 hr tution, then again to some yoga class, then to an IIT coaching centre...and after all this drama, finally returns home at 10:30 PM at night! I was simply shocked when I first heard his daily routine from him! Are these people parents or beasts?
 
you have no right to say these people as beasts,after all they are doing these things so that there children could not face the struggling life and may have bright future....

however,the whole problem is the education system,there is a need to install newly made education system....
because of such system,children becomes stressed and aggressive in nature resulting in ill mannered society which leads to ragging system as raggers wants to use their juniors as kickbags so that there angryness could be lessened....

Education System should be transformed and it cannot be changed unless a hard protest is made.....
.:shoutBoards Haye Haye!!!

my daily routine...

6 AM to school,return at 2:30 and 3PM to coaching and then return at 6:30 PM and then school projects and coaching homework and then after a long routine sleep at 11PM
 
I loved my school days. My parents never scolded me even though I played cricket matches during 10th board.
 
indian education system sucks. period.

i left all the filthy "competitions" and dying for 0.1% from the 8th grade.
almost all of my family are IITians lol. they all made my life miserable during the 11th / 12th period. i literally felt like running away from home.

especially during the exam times......no TV (not even doordarshan :mad:), No computer, not even the fliping radio for crying out loud.

but i didnt give a flip. i still remember watching "Khakee" at my friends place.. the morning before my CET exams lol.

my family was in a state of shock after i declared enough is enough, i dont want academics anymore, no graduation, no nothing......i wanna be a film-maker. it took a year for me to convince them....was HELL !!

anyhoo.........
 
:rtfl

You end up directing TAOC.

Oh believe me, forcing them to go to some stupid IIT coaching class and making them to study all day long won't ensure them a "bright" future. It would just kill their childhood. How do you think that a kid, who has no personal space or time whatsoever of his own, would be successful in life? Geez man, living a life in jail, behind the bars, is better than living this sort of a life. We need to stop this rat-race, we really need to- for India's future's sake! FFS, we are murdering our own country's future with our own hands! This is why there have been no Nobel laureates from India in the contemporary period! The education system is SO bloody stereotypical and in majority of the cases, IIT oriented! Seesh, man. Why are people so frantic about these IITs? What do the IITians become in later life? Don't they end up in some corporate firm which makes them work like an animal from dawn to dusk every single day? Yeah, they might get hoards of money, but money has NO value at all, when you don't get any job satisfaction! Why the hell can't we realize this simple truth?

however,the whole problem is the education system,there is a need to install newly made education system....
because of such system,children becomes stressed and aggressive in nature resulting in ill mannered society which leads to ragging system as raggers wants to use their juniors as kickbags so that there angryness could be lessened....

The problem also lies in the mindset of an average Indian. He thinks that the only way to make his children learn something is to throw them to twenty coaching centres from nursery I, thus destroying, devastating and murdering their childhood! What can the boards do if the parents choose to completely neglect the school teaching and pay more importance to these sh!t coaching centres instead? Blaming only the boards and nobody else doesn't make any sense! Yeah, I agree, the board syllabus migt be tough, but do you think making the things a bit easy will solve the problem? No it won't. This rat race is the only thing these people are concerned about, and no matter how light the board syllabus might be, these people would just keep on with this rat-race! You get one mark less from the class topper- and you'll get severe beating and scolding back at home- this is the condition of our society nowadays. Geez, I feel for these students. Thank God my parents were never like this from the very beginning!

The system and the mindset of the people are flawed here. Most parents refuse to accept that their child might not want to pursue fields related to science. But most of them turn in to book worms and accomplish little in the real world. Success in academics does not equal success in real life. That depends on your definition of success though. Most people consider a 9-5 job that pays 50-100K as a success.

Personally, I am pursuing Computer Science which I have interest in, but the standard is poor. The emphasis is more on theory than applications. The course is outdated and easy. And I can't stand being taught by people who know less than I do.
 
actually,i am in a very crush and truffed part of my life....
I want to pursue the line of Animation & Coding while my father says me to become an IAS officer and whenever i tells him about Animation,he says to me that Animators are present in abundance and the companies make these animators work from morning till night while if you once become IAS,then your life will be so much advanced,ten people will roam near you,in short...I will have BHOKAL in that particular area while in reality I don't even know the full form of IAS and i ave no Interest not even 0.001%....

I am just confused what to do and how could i convince him.....
