Which Exams Does CISCE Conduct?

CISCE primarily conducts three exams:

ICSE (Indian Certificate of Secondary Education – Class 10)
ISC (Indian School Certificate – Class 12)
CVE (Certificate of Vocational Education – Year 12)

Features of the ICSE Exam

The ICSE exam focuses on providing holistic education through the English medium. Students are required to take six subjects, of which English is compulsory. Students are also evaluated on Socially Useful Productive Work (SUPW) and Community Service.

The ICSE curriculum is based on 12 years of schooling (nursery to grade 10) and gives students the freedom to choose subjects according to their interests and abilities.

Importance of the ISC Exam

The ISC exam is at the grade 12 level and is designed for students preparing for higher education. The subject selection is broad, offering students a variety of options in science, commerce, and arts. The ISC exam syllabus is in line with international standards, allowing students to easily obtain admission to engineering, medical, management, or other professional courses.

Significance of the ICSE and ISC Curriculum

Emphasis on English: Both ICSE and ISC courses help strengthen English language skills. This is why students from these boards have an advantage in international exams like IELTS, TOEFL, and SAT.
Variety of Subject Choices: Students have ample options to choose subjects that suit their career.
Understanding-Based Education: This board emphasizes concept clarity and in-depth study rather than rote learning.
Balanced Assessment System: A flexible examination system is adopted to measure students’ original thinking, creativity, and potential.
