Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board (GSHSEB) will declare the results of the first semester exams of class XI (science) today.
Officials said that nearly 1.70 lakh students have appeared in the first semester exam which comprised objective-type questions. This is the highest number of students appearing in the science board exam this year.
These papers were corrected by Optical Mark Reader (OMR). The results will be sent to school principals and will be declared to students on the same day. The result is expected to be around 90 per cent since the students tend to score better in OMR papers.

96% marks, but yet to get a college seat
Even as students complained of just a marginal dip in cut-offs on the second merit list, a 16-year-old was yet to get a college seat despite scoring an impressive 96.5% in his board exams.
"When the first list was announced, we got a message saying my son hasn't been allotted a seat in the first round and we should wait for the next round. Again, on Wednesday, we got the same message," the boy's father said. "I met education (department) officials, who said my son's form might be incomplete. However, when I checked with the guidance centre, they said the form was complete and had been accepted online," he added.
Interestingly, all the colleges where the boy had applied, including Ruia, Ruparel and Khalsa, had cut-offs lower than his percentage on the first list itself. Education department officials said they would look into this matter.
Meanwhile, close to 51,000 students were allotted seats in the second round of admission on Wednesday, of whom 32,758 got the betterment option. "In the fresh allotment, 8,425 students got the college of their first preference," said a senior education official from the office of the deputy director of education (schools).
Several top colleges in the city had very few seats to offer in the second round of admission. They were also not sure if they would have any seats left for the third round.
Manju Nichani, principal of K C College, said: "The possibility of a third list will obviously depend on students claiming their seats tomorrow. But I believe there is a bleak chance of a third list."
There are approximately 30 seats available for students applying for the commerce stream in the college. Moreover, there has been only a marginal dip in the cut-offs. The science and commerce cut-offs in the college fell by less than a per cent. At N M College, the cut-off dipped by less than 2%.
The principal said there might not be a third merit list in the college.

DU cutoff 2: Hope still floats
The second cutoff list released by Delhi University on Thursday night brought hope for admission seekers. Though seats for BCom (honours) are already taken in 36 colleges, 15 other colleges will still admit aspirants in the course starting Friday. Lady Shri Ram, Kirori Mal, Hindu and Sri Venkateswara have decreased their cutoffs for BCom (honours) by up to 0.5%.
Though not specialized, BA Programme too has been a popular course with students. The good news is that only six colleges have closed admissions in the course so far. Some colleges like Delhi College of Arts and Commerce and Shyam Lal (evening) have dropped their cutoffs by as much as 10%, making a large number of candidates eligible for admissions in the list.
Commerce students hoping to pursue BCom (H) may just have to opt for BCom now, considering that the dip in BCom (honours) cutoff is not too significant. BCom admissions have been closed only in three colleges, while colleges like Kirori Mal, Sri Venkateswara, Ramjas, Gargi, Kamla Nehru and SGTB Khalsa are going to continue admission with a marginal dip of 0.25% to 0.5%.
It's probably after a long time that Shri Ram College of Commerce has come up with a second cutoff list for general category candidates. Admissions in BA (H) economics are still open in SRCC with a drop of 0.25%. There are 12 other colleges like Sri Venkateswara, Ramjas, Miranda House, Lady Shri Ram, Hindu and Hans Raj where the course is open for admissions.
Though admissions are open in the sciences, the cutoff continues to be on the higher side with a marginal drop in most college. The maximum decrease in BSc (H) physics is 3% at Bhaskaracharya College of Applied Sciences. In more popular colleges such as Hans Raj and Hindu, the decrease is less than 1%. Admissions are closed in 16 colleges for BSc (H) mathematics, but are open in as many.
For BSc (H) chemistry, admission is open in 13 colleges. But cutoff marks haven't gone down significantly. Maximum decrease in cutoff is 3% at Moti Lal Nehru. BSc life science is closed only in Gargi and Miranda House. Gargi College has closed admissions in all science courses.
English aspirants still have many options at hand. There is a dip of up to 8% in the CATE cutoff, while candidates can expect the general cutoffs to go down by 1-3%.The course is open at Hindu, JDM, KMC, Miranda House, Ramjas, Daulat Ram and SGTB Khalsa.
BA (H) history is closed in eight colleges. However, some colleges like Delhi College of Arts and Commerce, Kalindi and Ramjas are offering admission in the course at cutoffs lower by up to 6%.

Good average results makes DU's first cutoff list a cut-throat competition
With hardly a few percentage left for a perfect 100% cutoff, many popular colleges like Shri Ram College of Commerce, Lady Shri Ram College and Sri Venkateswara exercised restrain, while others went all out hiking the cutoffs upto 11% in courses like BA (honours) in history. And for science students who decided to join a regular degree course instead of any professional course might have to rethink as Monday's cutoffs have witnessed increase up to 10%.
Though SRCC stayed away from a 100% cutoff for its BCom (honours) course, it registered 96.5% for commerce aspirants and 98.5% for others. LSR's BCom cutoff remained unchanged at 97% this year. Even Sri Venkateswara College has maintained its 97% to 98% as the cutoff range for BCom (h) -- higher than SRCC -- while registering comparatively marginal increase in the rest of the courses. Despite just one admission in the first list last year, Kirori Mal College continued to be extra cautious by posting 96.75% as the cutoff for BCom (honours). DU sources said the cutoffs in BCom (honours) and BCom programme is expected to drop by as much a 5% in the second list in outside the campus colleges.
Some of the courses witnessing the big jump this year are BA (honours), BA (honours) English, BSc (honours) mathematics and BSc (honours) physics (h), among others.
In sciences the cutoffs for BSc (honours) in physics and chemistry at SGTB Khalsa College remained the same as last - 92% and 90% respectively. However, the college has hiked the cutoff for BA programme by 8%, English (h) and history (h) by 7% each.
Ramjas has increased the cutoff for BA (honours) history by 11%, which means for a humanities candidate admission in the first list opens at 91% or more. Even in BSc (honours) chemistry Ramjas has hiked it by 10.5%. Gargi College and Maitreyi College too are not far behind Ramjas, increasing their BA (honours) history cutoff by a whopping 10%.
College authorities say that though they have come up with a an 'unrealistic' cutoffs and will drop in the subsequent list by upto 5%, they resorted to high cutoffs to avoid admissions beyond their capacity.
First cutoff admissions begins on Tuesday, June 26 and will continue till June 28, 2012. The second cutoff will be declared on June 28, 2012 and students will be able to access it at midnight at DU's official website.

Assam HSLC results to be declared today
The office of the Board of Secondary Education, Assam (Seba), is abuzz with activities as all the officials are busy with last-minute preparations for the much awaited results of the High School Leaving Certificate examination ( HSLC) and Assam High Madrassa (AHM) examination, which would be declared today.This year, the matric examination went through a lot of controversies, one being distribution of wrong set of question papers of general science due to which the exam had to be rescheduled. Besides, some answersheets were devoured by cows at an evaluation centre in Goalpara, owing to which the result is being declared even late than last year.
At the Seba office, almost all officials started dispatching the results to different centres since Tuesday and by Thursday, all result sheets would be despatched in all the 51 zones. To ensure that the work is done on time, all the officials are working even on the holidays, Seba officials said.
Basanta Das, secretary of Seba, added, "Work is in its final phase now and we are working till 9 pm every day and even on holidays. Since there were some goof-ups this time, we have to be extra cautious."
He added, "Last year, the results were declared on May 27. But this time, it had to be delayed. So, now we are ensuring that no further errors take place and in every zone, the results are declared before 12pm on Friday."
Another official, who was busy with the listing, said, "Result time is always rush time and we are working even on Sundays. So taking leave is out of question. All departments have been assigned different work.'
He added, "We don't mind the hard work as the board conducts only one exam in a year. Before the exam, it was the students who worked hard. After the exams, we have to give our best to ensure that all students get their fruits of hard labour."
Maharashtra SSC 90% plus club shrinks, gives ICSE, CBSE admission edge
In Mumbai, the drop is by 48.6%, from 14,523 students last year to 7,459. Fewer students got 80% and higher too. Among those who cracked the exam, the largest chunk—45%—have scores of 35-59%. With most ICSE and CBSE students holding better scorecards, the upcoming admission season looks rocky for SSC students. Sports marks, best-5 gloss fades this year
For at least three years now, since 2009, it seemed like the academic world was riding a wave. With each passing year, the results were a bigger splash. The population of high scorers climbed as students milked every scheme visible on the horizon—whether it was the best-5 policy or the generous giveaway of up to 4% to sports stars. It seemed like the levees had crashed as a flood of 90-percenters came. This year, the count has dropped.
Like last year, 21,171 students applied for the additional marks in sports this year but it seems like the magic has faded off the additional marks granted and the best-5 policy. School education minister Rajendra Darda said the board would look into the factors behind the drop in high scorers. But most teachers reasoned that it was because of the changed format of science and maths papers, which included questions under a fresh section that required 'high order thinking skills'.
Sanskriti Merchant, from Fort Convent High School, scored 98% after calculating the best five scores. Merchant said, "This year, the science paper was totally different from the ones that we practised for, those of the previous years. Some of the questions were application based, where we had to really think. Also, problems were not from the textbook, like they usually are. Many must have found it tougher."
Sarjerao Jadhav, state board chairman, said the overall success rate had gone up in the state because the timetable for the exams was given well in advance and the exam was spread over a month, thus giving students enough time to study without stress.
Schools that managed to get a 100% result have increased. Over 2,500 schools in Maharashtra got 100% pass results, while 97 schools had the dubious distinction of not seeing a single student clear the board.
Meanwhile, the Konkan division, a new one culled out of the Mumbai and Kolhapur divisions, did best with a 90.8% pass percentage. Mumbai's pass percentage secured it fourth place among divisions, a drop from last year's second rank. On a more predictable count, girls outperformed boys.

Few Maharashtra board students score above 90%, tough admission battle looms
State board data shows that a mere 7,459 students in Mumbai and 24,994 students in Maharashtra (about 2% of those who passed) went past the 90% barrier. The number has almost halved from last year, when 14,523 students in Mumbai (5.1%) and 42,731 in Maharashtra (3.7%) scored 90% and above. Even in 2010, at least 13,456 students in Mumbai (4.8%) and a total of 40,928 in the state achieved the feat,
Most college principals were concerned about the fate of state board students during junior college admissions considering the fact that at least 30-40% students in most ICSE and CBSE schools have scored 90% and above.
Indu Shahani, principal of HR College said, "This is a matter of concern but over the past two years, we have noticed that the high cut-offs usually average out by the second merit list. Hopefully it will continue this year too, so that students don't suffer." She said that as results of other education boards get better with every passing year, top city colleges might be taken over by students from other boards. "This year, most students who graduated from degree colleges too have been from other boards," she added.
The fall in the number of top scorers will mostly have a bearing on the composition of top colleges.
"This will definitely impact the number of state board students in getting through to a college and course of their choice, especially in bifocal subjects. However, other boards have their own formula for calculating scores so hopefully, when they apply to junior colleges online, their scores might match the scores of state board students," said Shobhana Vasudevan, principal of RA Podar College, Matunga. She added that state board students might need a lot of counseling after the results. "For most students, their Class X scores are very important and if they fail to achieve what they desire, they are bound to get depressed," she added.
Rohan Bhatt, principal of Childrens' Academy said, "The numbers of top scorers in our school has definitely gone down. Many students have told us that they scored lower than expected in science, though other subjects were up to the mark." Gauri Dighe, science teacher at V N Sule School said clubbing science-I and II was extremely stressful for most students. People's Welfare School principal Hema Kannan reasoned the drop in number of high scorers to the fact that the upgraded math and science syllabus was a challenge for several kids.
With scores falling in science and maths, the overall results didn't present a pretty picture for many.
This year, the board introduced a new element in the curricula- High Order Thinking Skills - a section in which students had to apply knowledge from various chapters before they could answer the questions.
Shobhna Bhide, a teacher at Anandiketan, Nashik, and a member of the state's board of studies for science, said, "Till last year, the format of the question paper was such that every student who studied the text could answer all questions. But this time, the HOTS section required a lot of thinking. In the final count, performance in that section separated the really bright students from average kids." S Chakraborty, a teacher from an Andheri-based school, said, "Many science teachers have found that students performed miserably in science. Some questions carrying more marks were based on application. Those questions were easy, but our state board students were new to this pattern. Many must have found it difficult to attempt these questions. Also studying the whole portion for both section I and II in a day was difficult."
However, the success rate in most subjects has gone up. Last year, overall pass percentage plunged by 7% in the state, one of its reasons being the dip in success rate of subjects. This year, more students passed in all subjects. In English (first language), 97.7% of the total students passed, up from last year's 95.9% in the state. The success rate in languages like Hindi (90.4%) and Marathi (92%) also went up by a couple of percentages. The overall rise in the state's success rate is also attributed to the rise in students' performances in different subjects.

OBC students sprint ahead in UP Board class X examination
Voicing strong views against reservation, Anna said, "In the caste-based reservation, talent takes a backseat. I feel there should be equal opportunities for everyone. For empowering backward classes, the government should provide basic facilities in rural areas." Anna hails from a village, where he has no access to electricity. On the contrary, Pooja feels that reservation is the only way to strengthen the backward students. "Reservation should definitely be there, when it comes to pursue higher education. It helps in bridging a gap between the affluent and needy."
Another topper Rishu Verma, who secured 95.6%, also belongs to backward class. Talking to TOI, she said, "Reservation widens the gap between general and backward class. Providing reservation to backward class gives them a leverage to work less, and the general category students had to put in extra effort,"
In Lucknow, three out of top four students belong to backward class. Sachin Maurya, an OBC who scored 92.8% said, "Reservation for all who are from backward class is unjust. It should be given to those who are deprived of basic facilities, so that they can match up with other classes." Sachin's father is a small-time farmer in Ballia, while his mother is a primary teacher. Two years back, he came to Lucknow in search of good education.
Securing 92.3%, Harshit Maurya, said, "To bridge the gap between the general category students and those belonging to other backward classes, reservation is the only way. It at least ensures that people from backward class have a secured place, be it in education or in a job."
Another OBC topper, Shraddha Singh Yadav was of the view that reservation spoils the very meaning of competition. "There is no space for reservation when it comes to showcase talent. I strongly believe that all students should be treated equally without any discrimination between caste, colour, religion," she said.

83.75% clear UP Board High School exams
Once again the fairer sex has stolen a march over their male counterparts as the overall pass percentage of girls is an impressive 88.95 against 79.61 of boys, a sizeable difference of 9.34%.
Barabanki continued to be the cynosure of all eyes as three students of the district jointly shared the top position in the state with an aggregate of 96.50%. What's heartening is the fact that two of the three are girls -- Pooja Yadav of Maharani Laxmi Bai Inter College, Barabanki and Aakanksha Singh of Saraswati Vidya Mandir Inter College, Barabanki.
The third topper, Anna Yadav is a student of BRGP Higher Secondary School, Baraiyya Suratganj, Barabanki.
This year, a total of 35,59,196 students appeared in High School examinations conducted by the UP Board, out of which 19,79,928 were boys and 15,79,268 girls. Among these, 28,39,303 appeared as regular candidates while 1,41,610 appeared privately, said director, Secondary Education, Basudeo Yadav, while announcing the results here on Friday.
Yadav said that district wise, Varanasi recorded the highest overall pass percentage of 92.13 while Lalitpur was the lowest on the table with 70.81%.
Yadav said that after a gap of four years, the overall pass percentage of students has doubled in the backdrop of the fact that it was 40.07 in 2008 while it has climbed to 83.75 in 2012. This is a very healthy trend, he added. This year the Board conducted the High School examinations from March 16 to April 2 at 9,869 examination centres across the state. The evaluation of answer books was undertaken between April 26 to May 10 at 155 centres.
This year a total of 475 jail inmates from different jails across the state appeared in High School examinations, out of which 387 were declared successful. The overall pass percentage of jail inmates recorded a healthy 81.5. Besides, the overall pass percentage of boys this year increased by 13.58 while that of girls went up by 12.03.
Also, as a part of Continued and Comprehensive Evaluation Policy, the High School examinees were allotted 70 marks in the theory papers while the remaining 30 marks were awarded in practical and internal assessment. Under the National Education Policy, a nine point grading system was adopted in theoretical subjects while five-point grading system was adopted in practical subjects.
To check the malpractice of changing answer books in some districts by lumpen elements, the UP Board had distributed numbered answer sheets in 10 districts, including Allahabad, Kaushambi, Hathras, Aligarh, Etah, Azamgarh, Mau, Ballia, Ghazipur and Deoria.
Subject wise, Anthropology and Punjabi recorded 100 percent results as 116 students who appeared in former and 352 in latter were declared successful. On the other hand, Assamese recorded the lowest pass percentage of 14.29 as only one of the seven students who appeared in the examination managed to muster passing marks.

Tamil Nadu SSLC results by noon today
The directorate of government examinations will release the Class 10 board exam results at 1.30pm on Monday. Around 11.5 lakh students had registered for the exam this year.
This is the first year that students of four boards — Matriculation, Anglo-Indian, Oriental and state board —wrote the exam based on the common school syllabus. This was also the first time that students in the state board schools attempted science practical exams.
The results, which are usually out by the end of May, are delayed this year because the exams were postponed from March end to the first week of April. The state decided to delay the exams as students got their textbooks only two months after schools reopened, thanks to the court battle over common syllabus.
The state has decided to incorporate security features such as the photograph of the candidate and a unique quick response code, to prevent forgery, in the certificate.

IIT answer sheets to be posted online
IIT aspirants will now get to see their evaluated JEE answer scripts even before the result is declared on May 18. IIT Delhi, which organised JEE on April 8 this year, has decided to upload the checked optical response sheets of every candidate on the JEE website to maintain transparency and avoid any errors. It is for the first time that the candidates will get a chance to go through their answer sheets to see if they have been evaluated properly.
If a candidate finds any discrepancy, he or she can lodge a complaint online. These evaluated answer sheets will be available online from May 5 to May 10. The facility to submit requests for revision will close at 5pm on May 10 after which representatives of all IITs will meet to consider the requests. If found correct, the responses will be updated by May 14. According to IITD director, R Shevgaonkar, it may happen that the scanner does not pick up correct responses if a candidate has not filled the response bubble completely.
"In such a case, they can simply lodge a complaint and we will go through it before the preparation of the final merit list," he said. However, candidates will not be allowed to change their responses or question the answer keys provided by IITD. The facility is only for highlighting any technical glitches.
