Cbse Boards - Tumblr Posts
Class 12th Boards in a nutshell:
Divided by streams, united by 🤡 English papers.
Now that we have collectively established that cbse is on drugs, we just need to find out which one(s).
ngl it feels like the Indus Valley Civilisation was the peak of humanity and after it's end everything went down hill
do y'all ever wonder how most of the swear words have 4 letters like; Sh1t, F*ck, D4mn, D!ck, Cr4p, J3rk etc and so does CBSE???
I hate how our education system keeps on failing us, save for a few good teachers everyone else is in just for fulfilling the obligation to get the paycheck and students too have gotten so used to the shitty teaching methods that majority never really questions it. I have the English boards tomorrow and here i am ranting about how it disappoints me to see how chapters like 'Should Wizard Hit Mommy?'(this is one hell of a chapter and WE NEED TO HAVE DISCUSSIONS ABOUT IT IN CLASS because it has so many layers and issues depicted in it) 'Aunt Jennifer's Tigers', 'The Rattrap', 'On The Face of It' and many more that are such great source to stir up very important conversations about male chauvinism, generational gaps, parent-child relations, normalised misogyny, miscommunications, human nature/psychology, grey morals, abelism, bullying, self identity etc etc etc etc being ridiculed and hated by numerous of students just because they have been treated like some silly stories and poems that need to be crammed for the sake of marks. I hate how teachers never try to stir up conversations about the impact these chapters have in our daily lives & thinking and make us question and have discussions about these stories and characters and their dialogues. The literature of our syllabus isn't only for entertainment and cramming, it's for provoking our thoughts and questioning things but alas they waste such great opportunities. (Seeing how most of our teachers aren't equipped with the skills to make use of these chapters in the right way, it's better to remove these chapters because if we don't have discussions about the issues depicted in them, it's just promoting and normalising those issues which isn't a good thing.)
Anyways, all the best for tomorrow guys!!! Hoping CBSE doesn't mess this up again for us :)
I'm back again with yet another rant about the English course and yes this is about 'Should Wizard Hit Mommy?' and how many of the students think it should be removed because of the misogynistic comments of one of the characters. See I find that chapter really important and interesting because of it's main and direct theme being the questioning/acceptance of parental authority (or any authority in our lives) and child-parent ideological differences. But apart from that there are so many underlying themes in this story like how not everything is just black and white (ie the answer to should wizard hit mommy), Jack's dilemma as a parent, feeling of outcast and being different, how people treat those who are different than the norms etc. As readers it really depends on us on what we interpret and find in these stories and I won't start an analysis here just to save time. It's an open ended story anyways.
Now coming onto Jack, just because he isn't an ideal fictional man and has balantly realistic misogynistic attitude, people demand this chapter to be removed and call it a shitty chapter??? Hello?? What do you want?? Our courses to be filled with fairytales of unrealistically ideal characters without any flaws like children books?? We are 12th graders folks. Jack is as real as any male we encounter in our daily lives and his presence in the chapter does not make the chapter shitty or unworthy of being taught in the class. We as readers are to question characters like him, nobody is saying to idolize the characters and love them all. We have grey characters like him to make us wonder and question things, not to just accept everything being told. Just because the chapters are being taught in the worst way possible doesn't make the chapters unworthy of being taught. Now cue to my last rant why I don't really blame the students for this but our educators. I really like the chapters of our ncert books, they'd have been great if used to their full potential instead of being seen as stories to be read nonchalantly and crammed to get scores. But well...
Do we not have any Class 12 Humanities folks here?? Is it just me and @stutss against the Political Science paper here???
omg hihi I’ve been trying to find humanities kids because im one too 😭 but yea poli sci is next and im so close to losing it (cant wait to burn the politics in india textbook after this 😵💫) and that’s apart from the fact that im not taking these exams as seriously as i should, i started three animes ever since the english board got over send help <3
but lmao my problems aside, best of luck for poli sci to you and whoever else may see this ask !!
Hey!!! You can now find them on my 'Humanities kids seeking' post and I was surprised to find so many of us! I was so delighted!!
I feel you! I get you! [I guess we all have a strong dislike towards the Politics in India book] But why are all students having such strong urges of arsonism, it's already so hot 😭 folks I'm concerned, this metaphor is adding fuel to the already burning fire and damn the heatwaves. This paper is already a five-alarm fire...and I'm so fired up that I'm using too many fire related idioms. Sending help [I think I need it too] <3 but don't worry, if you're feeling prepared enough then there's no point in burning yourself out by stressing too much that you're not stressed enough. Hopefully the paper will go nice!!
All the best to you too!! And everyone for whatever papers they have coming up!!
hey are u in 12th? or do you know someone who's in 12th studying economics? my exam's coming up and i need some doubts cleared :)
my teacher's lame and i didn't bother to make any real friends in the last 2 years so now i gotta ask strangers for help lol
also, whoever sees this ask, please reblog and help this idiot 😭
Hey! Yes I am but I don't have Economics as a subject. It's okay, I'm sure someone will help you out when they see this. Eco folks assemble!!!
All the best for the exams :)
So Jotedars during the Permanent Settlement era were these little sadistic rich brats that loved seeing the sufferings of Zamindars and showing who had the real power and dominance by annoying them. Ahhhhh sounds like a perfect enemies to lovers arc plot-
