Unlike CBSE, CISCE gave equal weightage to both terms’ theory papers for the final results of classes 10 and 12. While CBSE assigned 30% weightage to Term 1 and 70% to Term 2, CISCE considered both terms equally. Gerry Arathoon, Chief Executive and Secretary of CISCE, stated that they had announced this approach from the beginning, leaving no room for doubt. CBSE’s decision was based on students’ feedback that they couldn’t perform their best in Term 1 exams due to the new objective pattern.
