BHC slaps SSC Board

Last Friday, while I was having lunch with my friends at office, the news about SSC results was gaining some notice. The news flashed, the SSC board has come up with a formula of ‘best of five’ for Maharashtra SSC students, to contend SSC board results with other boards like ICSE and CBSE in the state. The formula says, “consider best 5 subject marks and calculate the % based on them, spare the lowest mark-subject”, which effectively increases the percentage by 2-5 %. Three years back, for the same effect of competing with other boards, the state announced to give 4 % extra to the students playing at the state level. I guess now every student in SSC plays at state level and gets that bonus 4 %. The insanity of this affair has led to the effect of having more than 13,000 students with 90% and above this year, with some even crossing 100% mark. What the hell!!!!
My friends bro has secured 100.2 %!!!how!!
Well, he has 93.4 % of all six subjects, 96.2 % with best-five formula, and on top of this, 4% for sports. And so, he has scored a century in SSC this year.
Securing 88% in my 10th std, I was second in the entire school and now there will countless students having 88% with this new unintelligent rule.
But the Bombay High Court has salvaged the education system from this disaster by setting aside this obtuse formula.
The Bombay High Court has rejected the proposal of having the 'best of five' system for Secondary School Certificate (SSC) Board students with regard to Standard XI admissions for the current year.
The court has the opinion that this might be a discrimination against the students from other boards such as ICSE and CBSE, which I believe, is very much true.
Following this, the online admission process for Standard XI will commence immediately.
Hope the admission process goes well with no adding-up of another pointless, extra %s on the way!!!
