Marginal rise in distinctions, first class: HSC students fear losing out on best self-financed course seats

MUMBAI: State board students from Class XII have recorded a marginal increase in grade wise performances in their results announced on Monday. With most of the schools from the central boards--CBSE and ISC-posting an increase in 90% scorers, admissions to self-financed courses in prominent colleges may turn out to be a tough fight for many from the state board, which posted a marginal increase in high scorers.

While the HSC board does not compile data for 90% scorers, there is only a 1.5% rise in the number of students scoring a distinction in the city. The number of students scoring first class increased by almost 4%.

"The number of students in the pass class reduced whereas those in first class and distinction have gone up this year, which is a good sign," said a principal from a junior college. However, the struggle for top colleges will bother students.

Indu Shahani, principal of HR College, said many of her in-house students could not get seats in popular courses such as BCom (accounts and finance) and BCom (banking and insurance) in the first merit list last year. However, some of them were later accommodated in subsequent lists or admitted under the minority quota. "Some candidates withdrew their admissions after securing seats in engineering and medical courses, so these seats were opened for our in-house students," said Shahani.

TA Shiware, chairman of the Association of Non-Government Colleges, said the state gover nment should introduce a quota system for in-house students in the self-financed courses.

"There are around 30,000 seats in self-financed cours es in affiliated colleges, but only 15 colleges are among the most sought after. With CBSE (93.51%) and ISC (96.86%) registering a success rate of over 90% every year, their students bag most of the coveted seats. State board students are unable to get into popular courses in their own college," said Shiware.

Hitanshu Bhatia, a commerce student from NM College, Vile Parle, said, "The CBSE and ISC students have scored very high percentages but our scores haven't been as high. So cut-offs might be a problem for us."

Admissions to Mumbai University's affiliated colleges started on Monday with around 5,873 students registering for the pre-admission online process. Most students who registered claimed the university's site (mum.digitaluniversity.ac) was running smooth on the first day of registration. "This year we had additional servers to deal with the heavy load on the day of the results. We are expecting more students to log on to the site and register from Tuesday," said an official.
