Should My Brother's Son Opt for State Board or CBSE for PUC?

Ans: Hello Ijaz
If you compare the syllabi of state and CBSE boards, there is hardly any difference; only the board examination pattern differs. A student from any board can succeed in any national-level examination like JEE or NEET or their equivalents. Many parents opt for the state board from PUC, i.e., from 11th standard. There are several reasons for this. The examination pattern of the state board is much simpler than that of the CBSE board. Additionally, the CBSE 12th board examination is conducted over at least one month, which is frustrating for parents and students. Due to this problematic examination pattern, the average student struggles to focus on both the board and the JEE/NEET syllabi and examinations. Many CBSE schools (11th and 12th grades) compel students to attend school, which is not always necessary. On the other hand, many state board schools and colleges give students the freedom regarding their attendance. Therefore, it is advisable to choose a state board college or school that does not require full attendance. This flexibility allows students ample time for self-learning and attending coaching classes.
