Any candidate will straight way not know where he/she is going to stand. What’s been provided is they are preparing results on this basis, and who isn’t satisfied may take exams, said Justice Maheshwari

Senior Lawyer Vikas Singh said, "There should be only one result. I don’t want improvisation etc. That will create uncertainty for students."

If a student says they do want internal assessment, and exams are taken if situation is better, they can’t go back to internal marks. In second situation, if they only take internal assessment, chance of improving won’t be there.

The bench further added, "What we’re saying is at outset you take confirmation from the students. Those who opt for writing exams don’t opt for internal assessment. Thats their conscious decision."

Had it been a competitive exams, your argument may have been relevant. These are qualifying exams, one person’s marks won’t affect you. It would be better for students to take an improvement exam.

AG also said, "Suppose he takes option of not taking, In those circumstances he will have right to see internal assessment, if his marks are good he won’t have to take exams, as results of exams are final."

What's happening CBSE? Why still confusion? The criteria given for the evaluation of Class XII students of 2020 - 2021 batch is not acceptable. How can you justify the weightage based pattern of marks (Classes X, XI & XII)?

The Supreme Court will hear the petition filed by Class 12 private and compartment students against the board’s decision on holding physical examinations amid the prevailing COVID-19. The Court is expected to take some decision on evaluation criteria for class 12 CBSE and ICSE.

Earlier, Senior Lawyer Vikas Singh said, “Even a senior Mathematics teacher couldn’t understand the CISCE’s evaluation scheme completely then how can students understand it?”

In response to that Justice Khanwilkar said, "We cannot go by individual's view. If the scheme is discriminatory, we can understand but cannot go by an individual,” as per NDTV report.

The Supreme Court on Monday adjourned the CBSE and ICSE evaluation criteria hearing. The Court will hear the matter today at 2 pm. The vacation bench of Supreme Court will hear the petitioners before suggesting any changes in it.
