  • Can I get the pics and list of students selected for national level CBSE exhibition?

  • I hadn't received the certificate of participation in CBSE national level exhibition 2015 - 16 and winning certificate for regional level science exhibition ,Allahabad.

  • My school is discriminating and sending the student who are good at studies. The people who are going to see the exhibition are just book warm. They are not giving the opportunity to other students.

  • Need for Recognition for winners of National / State level CBSE Science Competitions at Competitive exams like AIPMT / NEET/ JEE etc conducted for admission to professional courses similar to those offered for NCC, Sports ..
    Presently it is not available at any of the National or state level examinations / admissions.
    CBSE may look in to this and do justice to all these bright aspirants.

  • We do not get our cbse national level participation certificate and merit certificate of regional level.
    PPJSV ,Nanital UK

    • Please send us the participation certificates for Nationals and qualifying to Nationals at regional.

      Still not received certificate. Why so much of delay?

  • What are the dates for CBSE Level Science Exhibition? And where it will be organised? What are the benefits the participants who will secure first prize in That competition. Is there any next stage after the CBSE Level Science Exhibition?

    • Yes you get a chance to attend mentoring camp of IRIS. After national level there is one more level which you have to qualify for attending IRIS National Fair. I have been a part of both. Its a wonderful platform.

  • What is the date for 43rd national level Jawaharlal Nehru science exhibition to be held at Hyderabad?

  • The National level science exbhition held at Vivekanand school New Delhi on 8th Feb to 10th Feb . The Judge4ment was not fair. The projects which was selected for Resource management. Are they come under Resource management really? CBSE has to be responsible for this unfair judgement.

  • How can schools get photographs of the winners at national level CBSE science exhibition at Vivekanand school Delhi?

  • We didn't receive CBSE National Level science exhibition 2016 was held from 8th Feb to 10th Feb 2016 at Vivekananda School Delhi
    With regards,

  • The exhibition was too competitive and interesting. Only 21 projects were selected out of 448 projects in which one is mine. Thanks to CBSE National Level Science Exhibition for giving me such platform.

  • Our school participated in national level exhibition in February on 8,9,and 10. What puzzled us is the complete secrecy of criteria by CBSE science fair organizers, except in INDIA all the other countries declare the expectations and also present a report after the exhibition is over as to which of the criteria were not met by those who were not selected. This transparency is completely missing in CBSE. Why? This will enable schools to remedy next time or are there going to be no next time and only a few are favored? It is as sickening as research status in India. It is time CBSE understands that every school has put its utmost effort. Why we even selected the highly problematic area not a fancy and found experimental solution. The open mindedness about judgement is what we all want. Will our cries reach the right persons in CBSE?

  • You have cheated everybody. You not fair with anyone. Please take this seriously. Many models are better than the one you chose because you are not taking decisions properly.

    • This comment is not fox calling grapes sour but a serious issue faced by majority of schools affiliated to CBSE. I agree with you. It is a highly sickening condition. There is no transparency and a report about each model is important as to how it has been judged. Fair or unfair we have only one national level competition. It could have been better if regional wise they recognize talent and stop short with that. The judges should be science maths and technical teachers of schools and not colleges or universities. Many simply make a tour for namesake not knowing what is really expected. This is the reason why talented learners leave India. Saying that the untapped potentials are far better than exposed is true with regard to CBSE. Every time we have to console ourselves and revive our spirits believing there is next time. How far this belief can be honoured, only CBSE has to reply.

  • We are in national level science Exhibition but haven't received certificates for qualifying regional level!

  • We were 3 in regional level science exhibition, due to some medical c causes, I was an extra. I wanted to ask if I could come if not as a participant but just as an audience with our selected team for the national level?

  • When are we going to receive the certificate of CBSE regional level science exhibition held on 29,30,&31 DEC 2015 ?

  • I have developed an android app which will help us to conserve water. Will our group be provided a projector in school or we have to bring our own?
    Will there be only one winner or many winners?

    • You will have to arrange your own projector or any other gadgets like extension cord,laptop,flex etc. The venue, school will only provide you a table to present your model and a chair to sit. Nothing else!! Another thing is that if you have developed an android apps,why don't you just upload it on play store? AND during your presentation,try to show your app with GOOGLE CARDBOARD. It is a very new concept developed by google which enabled you to see the full surround view of a modal or anything by just connecting your smartphone with the cardboard. It is available on ebay,and shopclues for just Rs 250-350. Hope my post might help you in sorting out your problem.

  • I am from Odhisha and I got selected for national science exhibition but I did not get any information about date or venue. I asked even school about it but they told that they did not get any information. Please tell me the date. Its very serious. I will be very grateful to you.

  • Can you please tell me that our school (Udaiya public school Faizabad) is selected for the national level going to be held on 8th,9th and 10th of Feb. 2016?
