Those who get Qualifying Certificates shall be eligible for admission in higher classes.
The schools affiliated with the Board follow different practices suitable in their own context. They may continue to do so. However, in view of demand by a number of schools, illustrative guidelines for deciding combination of subjects at Class XI are given below:
The admission can be based on CGPA (overall indicative percentage of marks) and subject wise GP (subject wise indicative percentage of marks).
In case of tie in CGPA (overall indicative percentage of marks), the inter-se-merit of such candidates may be determined in order of preference based on subject wise Grade Point (subject wise indicative percentage of marks).
For example : In case of two or more candidates obtaining equal CGPA (overall indicative percentage of marks ), the inter-se-merit of such candidates may be determined as follows :
(a) For Science based Courses :
Candidates obtaining higher CGPA (indicative percentage of marks) in one compulsory language (Better of English/ Hindi), Mathematics and Science.
(b) For Commerce based Courses with Mathematics :
Candidates obtaining higher CGPA (indicative percentage of marks) in one compulsory language (Better of English/ Hindi), Mathematics and Science/ Social
Science.
(c) For Commerce based Courses without Mathematics :
Candidates obtaining higher CGPA (indicative percentage of marks) in one compulsory language (Better of English/ Hindi), Science and Social Science.
(d) For Humanities based Courses :
Candidates obtaining higher CGPA (indicative percentage of marks) in one compulsory language (Better of English/ Hindi), Social Science and 2nd Language.
The above example is only illustrative and not exhaustive.
