KEEPING IN view the latest trends in the educational sector and demands of the market, the
Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIP) would introduce several courses soon. The new courses include Bio-Informatics, Executive MBA, Services Management, Water-Harvesting, Nanotechnology, Disaster Management, Hospital Administration, Remote Sensing and GIS Application. Some of these courses are not available in any institution in the Capital. The university, which comes under the Technical and Higher Education department of the Delhi government, would also introduce a new course or BTech (Biotech) to cash in on the craze amongst students for the course. Government officials said that the entire curriculum is being framed by leading experts from the industry and academics to include the latest developments in the field in the syllabus. Alliances with foreign university and research collaboration in India and abroad would be done in the next few months.

Having started with 15 programmes, the officials said that 5 courses are being offered now. While 29 courses are at graduate level, another 23 are being offered at the PG level. While 29 graduation-level courses another 23 are being offered at the post-graduate level.

The Delhi CBSE Class X result is a bit of a mixed bag. The pass percentage, at 60.84%, is up by 1.09% from the last year. Boys’ pass percentage is just 3.1% behind girls’. There are 3,010 students with scores of 90% and above and 163 have scored 100 in maths. In science, 54 students have hit a perfect 10, the highest in the country. But, on a national scale, the figures don’t look good. Delhi’s 60.84% pass percentage compares poorly with Chennai’s 90.74%, Ajmer’s 87.70%, Chandigarh’s 82.21% and Allahabad’s 80.60%.Countrywide, 13,853 students made it to the merit category.

Then, languages seem to have tripped city students big time. An abysmal 10 students got more than 97% in Hindi course B an option popular with private schools while no one made it to the merit list for course A.

Statistics:-

· Delhi’s pass percentage 60.84 up by 1.09%. Still compares poorly with Chennai (90%), Ajmer (87%) and Chandigrah (82%).

· 163 students scored 100 in maths. Guwahati (206), Chennai (203), Allahabad (1 82) far ahead

· Only 8 students managed higher than 97% in English. The figure in Allahabad is 49.

· Delhi outperforms other zones in science as 54 students score 100.

· 163 score 100 in maths

In contrast, Chennai came up with 122 winners. Again, in English, only eight got scores higher than 97% while Allahabad had 49 Students on the merit list.Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya: and Kendriya Vidyalayas came up trumps. Their pass percentage was 93.92% and90.82% respectively. And even though the 2005 Class X toppers are from private schools, the pass percentages of these institutions was only 86.36%, a drop from last year 87.10% and significantly lower than that of KVs and JNVs.Government schools logged shocking performance with only 48.03% students passing the exams. Incidentally, last year, it we a more respectable figure of 50.77% for them. Perhaps a reflection of the poor job Delhi government is doing in running the city schools

Did you know that Delhi students are really good in maths with 69 (most in India) scoring a 100 per cent in the subject? In comparison, Chennai, that saw the best overall results with a pass percentage of 90 per cent, has just 51 students with a 100 in the subject, according to figures provided by the CBSE. But Delhi’s grasp over English and Sanskrit isn’t great. Not a single student has scored over 93 in English (elective) in the Capital while no one has scored more than 97 in Sanskrit. . Chennai, on the other hand, has the English (elective) topper with 97. The topper in Sanskrit (core) is also from Chennai. The score: 100. Chennai students have shone overall in physics, chemistry and biology. Delhi, by comparison, just has two 100 per cents in physics, and one each in chemistry and biology. Delhi students also seem to be taking their political studies seriously. The political science topper with 97 is from Delhi. However, Allahabad has scored the best overall in the subject, with 126 students scoring 94 and above. Delhi’s students also have, it seems, a good sense of history 39 students scored 95 and above. Ajmer and Chennai follow with 25 and 15 students respectively in the same category. Overall, Delhi stood fourth among the cities with 77.61 per cent of its students clearing the examinations. Chennai is the topper with Ajmer and Chandigarh standing second and third. Though girls in Delhi beat the boys hollow with a pass percentage of 82.99 as compared to the boys’ 72.59 per cent, the boys have shown an improvement from last year’s pass percentage of 69.43. Kendriya Vidyalayas (KV) have very good results with the highest pass percentage of 96.39 per cent in the Capital, a marginal dip from 97.49 last year. Independent and government-aided schools have a pass percentage of 81.28 per cent and 75.25 per cent respectively. Across the country, Central Tibetan Schools have shown that they are the best performers with the highest pass percentage of 93.14 per cent. KVs stood second with 92.47 per cent.
