The ICSE scoring includes both internal assessments and external exams, making the final percentage an aggregate of more components than CBSE. This structure often yields a higher numerical value. As an admissions officer, I must look past the percentage to the percentile, as all boards are normalized for our entrance test. In my teaching days, I saw bright Municipal School children overshadowed by such systemic disparities—their 85% demanded more struggle than another's 95%. So now, I look for the *shaan* in the student, not just the *shunya* and *ek* on their marksheet.
