UP students have done better than last year in terms of pass percentage but slightly fallen short of national overall pass percentage this year in the ICSE (Class 10) and ISC (Class 12) exams, the results of which were announced by Council for Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) on Monday.
This year’s India’s overall pass percentage for ICSE is 99.47% (2,42,328 passed), ISC 98.19% (98,088 passed), in UP 99.14% students passed ICSE and 97.94% cleared ISC, quite close to national figure for both classes. In 2023, the pass percentage of U.P. students in ICSE were pegged at 98.40% and ISC at 96.33% that increased by 0.74% for class 10 and 1.57% for class 12.
This year the Council for Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) did not announce names of ICSE, ISC toppers as a measure to avoid “unhealthy competition” among students, said Joseph Emmanuel, newly appointed chief executive and secretary of the council. This places the CISCE with CBSE who do not reveal the names of board exam toppers.
