What are the best of five subjects taken out of six in icse for junior college admission in state board?

Yes, they consider English and best four subjects. Depending on the stream and school you choose that will vary the subjects priority because in some schools for PCMB the subjects they consider are English, science, maths & for PCMC they consider English, science, maths, computers & for arts they consider English, HCG, Hindi.

So the subjects priority varies based on the stream and school but English is considered as the one of the main subject.

Following six subjects are there in ICSE Board.

• Maths
• English
• Science
• Hindi
• Application
• History, Civics, Geography

English is compulsory to be included in Best Five subjects.

The best five option fro ICSE students would be worked out from only the first two groups of subjects- four subjects from GROUP I and two subjects from GROUP II.

Group I: students compulsorily take english, second langauge, history geography civics & environmental education.

Group II: student must choose two subjects from maths, science, commercial studies, agricultural studies.

The best 5 subjects taken are chosen as 5 out of 6 subjects in the following way :

1. (Physics + Chemistry + Biology) ÷ 3 = PCB

2. Mathematics

3. Hindi

4. Computer Applications

5. (History and Civics + Geography) ÷ 2 = HCG

6. (English 1 + English 2) ÷ 2 = English (Compulsory)

Since, English is the compulsory subject, 4 subjects are chosen out of remaining 5 subjects.

// And for Science and S.St, their average marks is taken for calculation.

// Further, for Commerce, the group 3 and group 2 subjects are considered.

And finally the percentage is calculated = (Total Marks attained/ Max. Marks) × 100.
