Confusion between CBSE and Gujarat Board

You should not confuse yourself. State board will help you in getting jobs in that particular state but the CBSE is a central board so you will be getting jobs throughout the country on the basis of that. The same applies for the selection in colleges around the country.

But on the other hand:

Total no of students who gave the CBSE Std XII Exams were 7,70,000 in 2011.

You can refer to:

http://cbse.nic.in/PRE%20EXAM%20PRESS%20NOTE%202011.pdf



There is a 10% increase every year so the year 2012 will have 8,50,000 students, i.e. 30,000 per state on an average for

both streams together, out of which students opting for Medical would be approximately 30% or 10000.

On the other hand:

Total Gujarat Board students appearing in 2012 for Class 12th Exams were 1,12,000 out of which biology stream students were

approximately 26,000. Total No of seats in medical in Gujarat are 1900 out of which 50% are reserved.
So approximately 1000 seats are open for merit, out of which 100 (10%) is reserved for CBSE quota.

Probability for CBSE vs Guj Board student to get admission in Medical is as follows:

Assuming % students passing in both boards are nearly equal (@ 70%)

CBSE: 100/9000*100 = 1.1%
Guj Board: 900/26000*100 = 3.5%
Thus, Guj Board student has 3.5 times better chance to get admission in MBBS compared to CBSE student

.
So better switch to Guj Board!

How many students in Gujarat board went in medical and how many students of CBSE Gujarat went in medical last year 2013?
