Parents, frankly never pressured me to score a certain percentage, but I kept pushing myself.”

Across the country, girls again outshone boys. Overall, ICSE and ISC saw pass percentage of 98.5 and 96.46, respectively. According to Gerry Arathoon, CEO of the council, the results show a marginal increase in pass percentages over the previous year’s results.
