SSC syllabus

If we consider O level (equivalent to S.S.C) as the international education system then we need to know about the whole system to compare it with the change our education ministry is willing to go for. An O-level student has the option to choose from more than one hundred subjects taking English as compulsory subject. Then they sit for exams by registering with "University of London Board & Examination Council" with the assistance of "British Council" here. Bangladeshi students generally take 6-8 subjects and can sit for their exams twice a year (Jan & May). They don't have any optional subject. They can sit for exams more than twice as well but then it is not well evaluated in future education. Their syllabus is upgraded from that of S.S.C.

If a change is what the ministry wants then they can do one thing keeping a few subjects like Bengali, English and Religion compulsory. They can open all the subjects of Humanities, Commerce and Science for the students to choose from and make the grading system similar to that of O-level. The students will happily study subjects of their choice keeping in mind what they want to study in the future.
