Every year, lakhs of students across the country, after passing the 12th examination, start looking for colleges and universities to decide the direction of their future. Some want to become an engineer, some a doctor, some want to move ahead in the field of arts, commerce or management. At such a time, choosing the right college or university is the biggest and most important decision. Regarding this important decision, the Central Board of Secondary Education i.e. CBSE has issued an important warning for the students and their parents.

CBSE has said in clear words that before taking admission in any college or university, you must check its affiliation. The board says that there are many such fake and unrecognized institutions active in the country, which give admission to the students by giving them big dreams and later their degree is of no use. In such a situation, time, hard work and money of the students get wasted.

The board said that every year many students unknowingly fall into the trap of fake universities. These institutions attract students by luring them with attractive advertisements, low fees and quick degrees. When students complete their studies from there, they come to know that their degree is neither valid for government job nor accepted for further studies in any good institute. In view of this danger, CBSE has issued this advisory in time.

What instructions were given?

CBSE has instructed all schools to make their students and their parents aware about this. Especially this information should be given to the students of class 10th and 12th, so that they can take the right decision for further studies. The board has said that schools should post this information on their notice boards, share it through the school website and circulars and also discuss this topic openly during parent-teacher meetings.

UGC is alert

The University Grants Commission (UGC) has also been continuously alerting students about fake universities. UGC releases the list of such fake and unrecognized institutions every year on its official website. This list contains the names of all those institutions which claim to give degrees without permission. UGC clearly says that the degrees awarded from these institutions are completely invalid.

If you are in 12th and are studying accounts, then this news is for you! CBSE is now considering allowing the use of simple calculator in the examination of accounts. This means that students may get some relief from long joints and complex calculations.

Why is the calculator discount?

CBSE says that many times in the account paper paper has to be done very long and difficult calculations, which increases the extra pressure on the students. Therefore, the board is now thinking that ordinary calculator should be allowed so that students can write quickly and correct answers and their confidence will also remain.

What are the rules right now?

Till now CBSE allows disabled students to use calculator in the exam. But CISCE (ICSE Board) had allowed all the students of class 12 to use simple calculator in 2021. Now CBSE is also making up its mind to follow this path.

How will the calculator be?

A committee of the board will prepare a guideline on which calculator can be used. Only basic calculator will be allowed, so that you can extract joint, subtraction, multiplication, part and percentage. But you will not be able to use scientific or advance calculator.

What will be the change in the examination system?

CBSE is preparing to bring a new digital marking system not only a calculator. In this, the answer sheet will be scanned and uploaded online, so that examiners will be able to check it in digital form. With this, paper checking will be done in more fast and correct way. In 2024-25 it can be applied as a trial in some subjects.

Students will get big benefit

If CBSE implements this rule, then students of accounts will get great relief. This will save their time in the exam and also reduce mistakes. At the same time, the results from the new digital marking system will come with quick and more transparency. This step of CBSE can prove to be a good change for students. Now it remains to be seen when the board takes the final decision on this!
