Most colleges have recognized the Cambridge Board. Students must take a minimum of 5 subjects to be at par with students passing out of Indian Boards. Presidency college has declared that students will be considered eligible on the basis of provisional result and entrance examination.
These are competitive exams which anyway require a rigorous training after the 12th board exams. So all students have to take special training at Coaching Classes.
The concepts are similar and the syllabus content is the same. But the International syllabus is more application based and the approach is different. Students of the Cambridge board have a better awareness about things around the world, as the spectrum becomes wider. The more in depth syllabus improves their thinking skills.
A child from the Cambridge board is already familiar with the system when he or she goes to an overseas college.
They get a head start in our colleges because the AS and A2 (class XI & XII) syllabus matches with our 1st year college syllabus.
