CHENNAI: With the Council for Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) announcing that it will revise the Class 11 syllabus to bring uniformity between ISC and CBSE syllabi, schools have expressed concerns about a possible dilution that would make it less challenging.
CISCE recently said the two syllabi vary slightly in terms of chapter sequence and the board intends to make them standardised. CISCE chief executive and secretary Gerry Arathoon said the board will rephrase the Class 11 question paper with competitive exams in mind as many students believe CBSE students are better equipped to handle entrance physics, chemistry, maths and biology exams.
