If You Didn't Score Well in CBSE, What are the Opportunities?

OPTIONS GALORE
CBSE results may have brought cheer to some and disappointment to others but there are options for everyone. You can easily find a course and a college that suits you. Here are a few choices:

If you have scored between:

40-60%
Do not despair. Just watch this video.

There are more opportunities than you think. Like any other Delhi University college, its School of Open Learning also offers BCom (Honours), Political Science (Honours) and English (Honours) apart from BA Programme and BCom. You will get a DU degree after three years. Cut-off for Sanskrit (Honours) also dip to this range in regular colleges. Many private universities outside Delhi also offer professional course like event management, footwear design and culinary arts in collaboration with the industry. Job-oriented courses like fashion designing, hotel management, retail management and radio jockeying are other interesting options.


60-75%
Go through the cutoff list of last year and apply to courses that look accessible. Do not hink about the college at this stage. Cutoffs for BA programme and BA (Honours) Sanskrit in select few colleges drop to this level further during the admission process. You can opt for courses that have an entrance test like management studies, mass communication and foreign  languages in DU. Other courses to watch out for are journalism, Bio-medical Sciences and social work. Again, private colleges are also a good option, if you can afford them.

75-90%
Be realistic about the colleges you can get through. Give preference  to the course and take admission wherever meet the cutoff in first list. Though courses like BCom (Honours), Economics (Honours) and even English (Honours) stay above 90% in most colleges, watch out for subsequent lists. Opt for BA programme or BCom or general science courses whose cutoffs are lower down below 80%. You will also be eligible to sit for entrance tests for different courses in DU. Applying to private universities is also an option.

90-100%
Those who have scored above 95% have a good chance of getting into the college and course of their choice in DU. Experts suggest choosing a good course is more important that going for a well-known college.

DU Cut-Offs to Rise as More Students Score Over 90 per cent
Top 3 in CBSE Class 12 Result from NCR

DU Cut-Offs to Rise as More Students Score Over 90 per cent

Delhi's government schools display better results than public schools across the country.

The marks scored by this year's topper and the over all pass percentage for class 12 Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) exams may have come down but this is unlikely to have an impact on the cut-off marks required to get admission to Delhi University's undergraduate course.

This is due to the high number of students scoring more that 90% and above marks.

A total of 82% students cleared the exam this year, while 82.70% had passed the exam in 2014.

The principals of certain schools fear that the high percentage scored by students may push the cut-off in universities further.

"CBSE and boards across the country have done a lot of modification in their assessment system which results in large number of students scoring more that 90 percent. This has certainly become a challenge and created lot of anxiety among students. This will also create lot of issues and push cut-offs higher," said Ameeta Wattal, principal Springdales School, Pusa Road.

For most schools in Delhi, the average percentage in the 90 plus bracket has been high. With majority of the toppers coming from commerce and humanities stream, the cut-off in these subjects may instead soar higher.

"Until and unless we get the admission registration, we won't be able to say anything. Moreover, 70% students who come to DU are from other boards so we need to consider that as well," said a school principal who did not want to be named.

A striking feature of this year's result has been the fact that there aren't many toppers from the science stream. This could be attributed to the tough physics and maths papers.

"Overall it has not affected much, but unlike previous years, the number of students scoring 100 in Mathematics and Physics have reduced." said Abha Sehgal, principal Sanskriti School.

DELHI GOVT SCHOOLS FARE BETTER

This year's government school pass percentage too fell to 88.22% from 88.78% last year.

Delhi's performance, however, was the best in country among all government schools. The region was followed by Ajmer where the government schools had a pass percentage of 86.11 percent, compared to 86.63 percent last year.

While CBSE has not released detailed statistics about the number of students who scored over 95%, this figure is expected to be less that last year with many teachers and principals saying that the number of students who scored between 90% and 95% seems to have gone up as compared to last year.

Top 3 in CBSE Class 12 Result from NCR

Top honours rested with students from Delhi-NCR as the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) declared results to the class 12 board examinations on Monday with girls extending their successful run and outscoring the boys yet again.

The overall pass percentage was marginally lower at 82% as against last year when 82.70% students passed the crucial exam, key for bagging seats in the country's top colleges.

The pass percentage of girls was 87.57, significantly higher than the boys' 77.77%. In Delhi too, girls emerged on top with a pass percentage of 90.87. The overall pass percentage in the national capital was 86.13%. Thiruvananthapuram region in Kerala registered the highest pass percentage at 95.41.

M Gayatri, a student of the New Green Field School in Saket, emerged the all-India topper scoring 99.2% in the commerce stream.

Recommended : Results May Push Up DU Cut-Offs

The second rank was shared by Mythili Mishra from Amity International School, Noida and Saurabh Bhambri of KR Mangalam World School in Greater Kailash II with both scoring 99% in humanities. unlike last year when top ranks went to students from the science stream, toppers in most Delhi schools were from commerce and humanities.

It is likely to push upwards, the cut-off for these subjects in the Delhi University colleges admissions to which begin on May 28. The number of students scoring a perfect 100 in mathematics and physics too came down.

"Assessments have become a challenge and this is creating a lot of anxiety among students. The students getting 90-95% still think they have not got high marks and the cut-off gets pushed higher," said Ameeta Wattal, principal of Springdales School, Pusa Raod.
