Which syllabus is better icse CBSE state?
I studied in CBSE for 12 years, from Kintergarden to Xth and
moved over to State Board (TN) for my higher secondary.
From my experience, I would rate ICSE to be the toughest,
followed by CBSE and State. ICSE / CBSE syllabi are designed to
promote thinking among children, going by the way examination
questions are framed (answers to questions are not directly found
in textbooks but are related to the syllabus) whereas state board
examinations are usually straightforward questions from the
book.
The downside of ICSE / CBSE (esp if you happen to be in TN) is
that you stand a much lesser chance of landing a seat in popular
colleges (Engg / Med) since the entrance exams for these are based
on state board syllabus and students from state board score much
higher than those from ICSE / CBSE since they are considered on a
level platform irrspective of the boards.
also it is the cbse syllabus which helps one to crack all sorts
of competitive exams and it brings out the true knowledge of a
person.
