My daughter's date of birth is 15th February, 2007. She passed is 2019 9th standard. And she appear board exam in 2021 and that time she will be of 14 years. So please guide me this is right age or wrong for appearing in the 10th ICSE Board exam?

The rule of I.C.S.E board says that a student's age should be minimum 14 years for appearing in 10th board exams as on 1st January of the year of board examination.

According to your daughter's DOB i.e 15/2/2007 she will become 14 years old on 15/2/2021. So she is failing the criteria of having age of 14 years old as on 1st January of the year of Board examination.

So your daughter can not be able to appear for board examination in the year 2021.
She have to appear for it in the year 2022.

Yes, its the perfect age to appear for board examination of tenth standard. The minimum academic qualification to appear for board exam of tenth standard is that student should have studied upto ninth standard from a recognized board.

In 9th standard, candidate must register for board exam of tenth standard. Majority of students in India appear for board exam at age of 14 years.

The minimum age for cbse or icse for 10th class is 14 years, which should be completed before 31st of march of that year.
