CBSE has developed an indigenous assessment tool called Student’s Global Aptitude Index (SGAI) in 2011 which is first of its kind in the country. CBSE- SGAI emphasizes upon the fact that each individual is unique. In the interest of new schools, it is reiterated that:
SGAI is a psychological tool of assessment with the purpose of empowering adolescents with “Self- Knowledge” in terms of the Aptitude, Interest and Personality.
This is an Optional Activity for students and schools designed for class X Students.
Unlike the conventional Aptitude Tests, which indicate professional orientations the CBSE SGAI attempts to indicate subject orientations at + 2 level.
It has been customized to suit the Indian context and variety of student population in CBSE affiliated Private, Government and Aided Schools. CBSE- SGAI is not an examination.
It is a simple paper and pencil test.
There are no right or wrong answers, negative marking, pass or fail.
No syllabus and special preparation is required for CBSE- SGAI.
Mental preparedness and sincere responses are the only pre-requisites for this test.
SGAI scores may depend upon child’s environmental stimulus and motivation level.
The purpose of CBSE SGAI is limited to help the larger population including parents, teachers and students to initiate a dialogue on subject choices that lead to effective career planning later in life.
Final decision on the subject choices may however be taken in consultation with teachers and parents.
Started in the year 2011, the second edition of CBSE SGAI was held in 2012.
More than 3, 00,000 students have so far opted for CBSE-SGAI in the last two years worldwide. Among the other valuable responses received from schools, parents and students, the need for such an assessment has also been highlighted.
