Category-Wise Performance
- General category students recorded a 99.26 percent pass rate
- OBC candidates achieved 99.24 percent
- Among students with special needs, 1,313 candidates with learning difficulties appeared, out of which 132 scored above 90 percent
- Among visually challenged candidates, 54 students appeared and 17 secured above 90 percent
Why No Toppers List
CISCE follows a deliberate policy of not releasing merit lists or toppers rankings for either the ICSE Class 10 or the ISC Class 12 examination. The board believes that ranking students encourages unhealthy competition and puts undue pressure on young learners. Instead, the board focuses on subject-wise and regional performance data. This policy has been in place for several years now.
