The second merit list for admissions to class XI (science) will be released on Thursday. More than 125 schools in Ahmedabad had declared the first merit list on June 7. Sources said as most of the top schools had announced students from outside will be on the first list, the second will only have students of the same school. In the first list, in majority of city schools, the cut-off remained over 90 per cent.
The merit list was declared by 75 Gujarati medium schools which have 108 sections that can accommodate 7,128 students. The list was also released by 34 English medium schools in the city with a capacity to admit 2,706 students in 41 classes. tnn
Officials said the marks sought by all the top schools remained over 90 per cent, especially for students seeking admission in other schools. The situation was especially difficult in English medium schools as the less number of seats led to stiffer competition.
Officials from the office of the District Education Officer (DEO) said the third merit list will be out on June 13. Officials added that students who are not able to avail admission by June 13 can fill fresh forms on June 14 and 15.
