Resonance - PCCP Students shines in NTSE stage 1

Resonance has produced 1 ,2 , 3, and 4 position in Rajasthan - NTSE'11 stage I.

In the revised result of NTSE stage-1(2010) total 101 students (out of total 259) are selected from Resonance and out of them 13 students stood in top 10 ranks and 48 students achieved their positions in top 20 ranks. Student of class- IX Parth Sharma secured ARR-1 by securing 157 marks out of total 200.

Everybody knows that SIERT did blunder in declaration of result this year and because of the pressure created by parents through Right to Information (RTI) Act they had to revise and declare the corrected result.

Since students' marks & ranking was not declared earlier so again parents asked all the details from SIERT under the RTI act. Here we would like to share this information with everyone that this blunder in the results was brought to the public notice by PCCP Division only.

The latest information about marks scored by students and their rankings were disclosed by SIERT to only those parents who have filed the RTI, seeking their wards performance in this examination. The efforts of PCCP division and the parents made through filing RTI's has started showing its effects. One of the major changes that occurred in the NTSE- II stage exam this year was that, immediately after the examination the question paper was given to the students, this was something new for the students.
