The Link between Best of Five scores and Skill Subjects
If students are dissatisfied with their grades in any of the major courses, they can take into account the new skill subjects from their curriculum while counting their highest five scores, under the new regulation.
Here is what the Board stated about the Scheme of studies for the students who opt for skill subjects in classes 9, 10: “If a student studies three compulsory subjects (i.e., Science, Mathematics and Social Science) and also chooses to study a Skill subject (offered as sixth optional subject), then the aggregate of best five including two languages (Subject 1 & 2) and the best three (from subject 3, 4, 5 & 6, including Skill subject) can be considered for calculation of percentage.”
What does it mean?
Therefore, in addition to the required topics (science, math, and social science), students can count the marks from any skill subject they choose to study as their sixth optional subject in their best five.
