Indian Certificate of Secondary Education

The Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) is an examination conducted by the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations, a private board designed to provide an examination in a course of general education, in accordance with the recommendations of the New Education Policy 2020 (India), through the medium of English.[1][2] The examination allows secure suitable representations of responsible schools (which are affiliated to it) in their states or territories.

The ICSE is known for its comprehensive syllabus and primary focus on the English language and variety of subjects that it offers, which involve language, arts, commerce and science. The ICSE is taught in English only, and as a result, ICSE students gain great command over English and literature from kindergarten. This helps the students acquire the art of writing compactly in English, which makes it easy for the ICSE-qualified student to score well in language exams like the IELTS and TOEFL.[citation needed] The ICSE has always been regarded as one of the best educational boards in India[by whom?] because of their rigorous syllabus, tough marking scheme for examinations, progressive evaluation and promotion criteria.

Subjects

Students taking the ICSE must write examinations in any six, seven or eight subjects. Of these, five subjects will be included in their final grade — out of these five, one will compulsorily be English, even if it is the subject in which the student has scored the lowest marks.[3][4] There are three groups of subjects. [5]

Group I - English, Second Language (Hindi, Indian regional languages (Assamese, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, etc.), modern foreign languages (French, German, Spanish)), Geography and History-Civics as compulsory subjects.

Group II - Choose any two subjects from Science, Mathematics, Economics, Commercial Studies, etc.

Group III - Choose any one subject from Home Science, Fashion Designing, Computer Applications, Environmental Applications, French, Greek, Mandarin Chinese, Sanskrit, Physical Education, etc.
