DELHI IS TOP IN C.B.S.C CLASS XII EXAMINATIONS-2013
Delhi
has several reasons to be proud and celebrate as 1,857 students from the city
who took the Central Board of Secondary Education Class XII exams have scored
over 95 per cent and 10,129 students have scored above 90 per cent. Besides,
the national topper in the Commerce stream is also from the Capital.Delhi also
retained its second position in the region having the highest pass percentage
with 86.78 per cent in which girls outshone boys by a pass percentage of 91.42
against the pass percentage of 82.44 for the boys.
Delhi’s
Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan’s (KVS) and its government schools were also the
leading performers in the country with the pass percentage of government
schools at 88.6 per cent and the KVS’ pass percentage at 97.56. The Navodaya
Vidyalayas (JNV) also improved significantly, inching up to the third position
from their previous last position. This year the pass percentage is 97.06
against last year’s 91.20.The independent schools performed well with a pass
percentage of 91.83, the second best in the country and an improvement of over
the 90 per cent they had last year. Private candidates continued to perform
badly with a pass percentage of 43.9, the second lowest in the country.Among
the government schools, the Commerce topper was Ankit Saini who scored 97.4 per
cent; the Science topper was Lalit Lakra who scored 96.2 per cent; and in the
Humanities it was Diksha and Momina Sheikh who both scored 95.2 per cent.
However,
a top score that Delhi cannot be proud of is the cheating department where
Delhi emerged the top region to have the most incidents of cheating with 25
cases against 10 cases last year.A total 258,998 students took the exam and
around 1,546 schools and 622 exam centres were pressed into service for the
exercise that went on from March 1 to April 17.Around 8.20 per cent students
were placed in compartment, a slight improvement from last years 9.66 per cent.
But these students may find the going tough as from this year, the number of
chances for clearing compartment has been reduced to three from five.The first
chance compartmental examination is scheduled for July 16, and regular
candidates will have to send their requests through the head of their
institution, who will then have to ensure that the list of compartmental
candidates, along with fee, reaches the respective regional offices by June 21.
Requests will be accepted up to June 29 with a late fee of Rs.10 per day.The
forms for verification of marks will be available on the Board’s website
www.cbse.nic.in. For urgent verification, applications can be made online
within five days from the declaration of result with a fee of Rs. 300 per
subject. Otherwise, the offline applications have to be made within 21 days of
result and the online applications from the sixth day of the result with a fee
of Rs. 200.
