One good thing about doing away with the exam is that you can reduce the tension in the young minds, and subsequent suicides. On the other hand, it kills the competition. When we club anyone who gets 80% to 100% in one single category, it kills the competition.
This is an excellent move by our MHRD Minister and needs to be commended for this out of the box thinking. One uniform school board for one India is an excellent idea. Scrapping of 10th exams and introducing grading system is superb. Entrance to professional college be it medicine or engineering should also be uniformly administered with each college having intake for local state students as well as a good percentage of out side state students. This is national integration at grass root level. An engineering council to administer changes in sylabus every four years for professional education as well as introducing national level new courses will also help the nation building process. Bravo!!! it does look like the center is moving in the right direction. MHRD please implement the changes at god speed.

10th Examination has nothing to do with college admission. Class XII examination is more important for higher studies.
remove exams .. for what so that we can't ask any politician weather have you passed class X.. so easily they will appear for class XII so class X fail is better than Class XII fail.. moreover he can say Class X pass..
Having a single Board for the entire country in place of numerous Boards will lead to a uniform education pattern. This in turn will lead to uniform evaluation system as well. This is something which needs to be fully supported. However while doing so local language of each state should be given prominence. As regards scrapping of Standard X Board examination, this will certainly reduce the pressure on the kids and make school going more enjoyable, but it should not be made optional. It should be completely scrapped and replaced by a Grade System of Internal Examination of the school but with external examiners using roll numbers and not names to remove bias of the school. The Grade System should be based on continous assessment in each term and not a one end-year examination.
only competition brings out the best.Learning in younger age has better advantage.May be exam fear cripple few but the preparation for the exam and the will to win competition definitely brings out the best from our younger generations.And it is proved over the years that Indians are better than other part of the world in Knowledge oriented sectors. Politicians they don't know what to do and trying abolish board exams/approving gay marriage and so on.
We OBCS,SCS and STs have been deprived of basic amenities for 5000 years , exam is nothing but upper caste's vicious plan to give us poor marks , so all exams should be abolished , we should be given a doctorate degree from IITs and be given a job in DRDO,ISRO,etc as a scientist , we should be called Dr. OBC, Dr. SC and Dr. ST respectively
How long are we going to tolerate this 5000 years of deprivation ?
I feel every performance is monitered as per benchmarks. And classX board is the first benchmark in having a quality education.
Today, we are thinking of scrapping off the board system, but by scrapping it, we are going to increase our troubles as we'll make it more difficult to monitor the quality of education one is getting and the quality of performance one is giving.
Though, the current system is not free from flaws and the people who make question papers literally torture the innocent students by designing out of the world questions. We can modify the system, the way grades are given.

I agree with you 100%. Just by postponing the failure of a student by two more years you are only elevating a bit higher before failing him. After all 15 years is not very young. In most of the western countries at 15, parents stop taking care of children and ask them to earn their own. In India, we want to carry the children piggy-back even after they are married and have children. If a boy or girl studies daily for atleast 2 hours, there need be no tension of exams in March/ April. Parents only need to ensure that children study regularly instead of study in february, write in march and forget in april strategy. In fact the yearly detention system should be brought back.

I appreciate the idea. It will save many mothers of their tension so that they will not have B.P at young age.I also suggest that system of education should include apart from language training classes human behavior and technical education like crafts, carpentry work, electrical work, automobile work and other likes so that children learn to work. Present system of education has only put the youngsters in such a situation that they feel shy to work and think that they have completed degree and will do only white collor jobs and they settle for a pune's job and they do not want to do cleaning work also. Lab our problems have become so much that people are looking forward to Nepal for workers. This type of education is only making the children lazy and good for nothing.
