Mumbai’s ICSE and CBSE students’ admission on rocks

· The state government has decided to introduce 90% reservation for SSC students, as 30 to 50% of non-SSC boards i.e. CBSE, IB, ICSE, IGCSE- make it to Mumbai’s top junior colleges every year.
· This year the non-SSC students may find it extremely difficult to get into the city’s top junior colleges, despite of the high score.
· Schools and students fear that this decision will leave many non-SSC students without admissions, and 90% quota is unfair to other boards.
