MUMBAI: The state government is committed to the implementation of the Best of Five scheme as the basis of admission for Std XI, said Balasaheb Thorat, school education minister, on Wednesday. The issue of junior college admissions was raised in the legislative assembly on Wednesday by Shiv Sena MLA Subhash Desai. “The government’s past attempt to introduce a new method for admissions to Std XI have failed and it may face a similar fate this time,’’ said Desai and asked if the government had an alternate plan ready.
To ensure a level playing field during admissions to students from the state SSC Board, the government has decided that only five of the six subjects where the student has scored the highest marks will be considered for admission to Std XI.
“We expect the student to pass in all subjects. In case the student fails to clear a paper, she/he can take admission to Std XI but will need to clear the subject,” Thorat added.
