Posted by: 2016-03-28 03:14:44 ,By Raj Kumar
The National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) conducted a sample survey in November 2014 and February 2015 for Class 10 students from the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) and the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) boards. The results of the survey have come now and it confirms that students of both the boards performed much better than pupils from other state boards in the first-ever standardised countrywide test.
As per the results of the survey, CBSE and ICSE students outshone others at the examination, leaving behind students from educational boards of Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu.
During the sample survey process, NCERT officials visited around 7,216 schools affiliated to the two national boards and 33 state boards. In the survey, 277,416 students were given a set of multiple-choice questions on five different subjects.
In the test, Class 10 students from Bengal topped countrywide by scoring 73 against a national average of 53 in the modern language test (Bengali in their case). In addition to this, they even crossed the national average score in English but balanced it in the mathematics paper.
