Over 1.25 Mn #CBSE students & another 10 Mn students are experiencing stress due to uncertainty on the status of #Grade12 exams. A thread on how deep this crisis is. And what CBSE could do & shouldn't do to avoid collateral damage. Grade12 exams are called high stake exams. 1/n
But even this is an understatement for an exam obsessed country like India. In Apr-19, 20 students committed suicide bcos they wrongly assumed they had failed not realising that there was a glitch in calculating the marks. That's how high-stakes board exams r in our country 2/n
Thus any decision CBSE takes, if not managed well, will have some tragic collateral damage. Unlike other international curriculums, CBSE has not invested in valid and reliable internal year-round assessments (also known as formative assessments). 3/n
