According to CBSE sources, one of the largest state boards, the UP board has not yet confirmed its decision. The state boards which will offer the common syllabus from this year include Haryana, Bihar, Uttarakhand, Goa, Nagaland, Jammu & Kashmir, Rajasthan, Kerala, Assam and West Bengal, among others. In 2008-2009, a committee was formed by the ministry of human resource development, which included members of NCERT and COBSE, to frame common syllabus for science subjects and mathematics, which would be common across the country. The idea is to offer level-playing field to all science students for various competitive examination for entry into higher education. There was a feeling among the students from state boards that the students of CBSE boards are at an advantage when it comes to cracking various competitive entrance examination for medical and engineering courses, among others. Now students will have the same syllabus across states, Puran Chand of COBSE said. Officials from the committee which framed the common syllabus said that around 10 topics have been changed from the existing syllabus prepared by the NCERT The syllabus is generally reviewed[3] after every 4-5 years so as to keep pace with changing trends in modern education. The board recently gave approval to the new common core syllabus for Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics.[4]. It has also decided to entertain a new assessment method based on percentiles obained by students to judge their capability rather than the current method of comparison of absolute scores. The idea is to do away the differences arising out due to differences is the marks obtained by students due to different marking schemes from different State Boards, CBSE, ICSE or ISC. After completing secondary school examination, students enroll for 2 years in Higher Secondary Institutions. Upon completing the required coursework, students may enroll in general or professional degree programmes.
