CENTRAL BOARD OF SECONDARY EDUCATION (CBSE) Pros: The syllabus is comparatively easier than other boards, especially because there are fewer subjects to cover and have a more compact structure. Subjects like Physics, Biology and Chemistry are covered under the umbrella of Science, while Geography, History and Civics come under the field of Social Sciences. The syllabus is application oriented as they follow a concentric curriculum The biggest advantage is that all important competitive examinations held in India, including Engineering and Medical, are based on CBSE syllabus Certification from CBSE board is recognised across India Cons: CBSE syllabus is more theoretical based and puts less emphasis on improving practical knowledge of the students. Though the curriculum is application oriented, it is not based on real-life concepts and does not provide scope for effective understanding. INDIAN CERTIFICATE OF SECONDARY EDUCATION (ICSE) Pros: A major difference between ICSE and CBSE board is in their syllabus. While the syllabus of CBSE board is more focused on Science and Mathematics, ICSE board, on the other hand, gives equal focus on Arts, Language and Science. The syllabus of ICSE is more comprehensive and detailed, and encompasses all fields of study The board gives more emphasis on English and therefore, students have a better edge over others students in exams like TOEFL A certificate from ICSE board is recognized globally, even in foreign schools and universities The curriculum is fruitful for students who are interested in the fields of Humanities and Management Cons: Many students find the syllabus little more complex and extensive Though the board facilitate better analytical skills and deeper understanding, it may be little problematic for students due to lack of leniency in evaluating exam papers. Scores in ICSE board is generally lower than CBSE board

ICSE is difficult but it is the best. It is available at very few places. CBSE is available all over India. If you didn't have ICSE in your place, then go for CBSE.

CBSE Syllabus is much better in theoretical knowledge, but ICSE syllabus has the upper hand when it comes to practical knowledge. Level of Ease, CBSE Syllabus is much easier, well structured, and compact than ICSE Syllabus. ICSE Syllabus is tougher when compared to CBSE because of the detailed study of all the subjects of ICSE Board. But ICSE Syllabus provides more practical knowledge and it aims to build analytical skills in students.

There is nothing like better. It depends on how well are you accustomed or get used to syllabus and question paper pattern. CBSE has regional kind of thing which is always beneficial at times.

Well, ICSE syllabus is tough, but it will make you competitive. Whereas, CBSE is much easier and widely used in India. So, if you want to go with most of the students in India, then you should choose CBSE.

ICSE board has a vast syllabus and has deeper stated facts about any topic taught through the curriculum. So any student studying under ICSE Board is definite to learn detailed study on any topic whereas CBSE on the other hand has a more comprehensive and short syllabus which focuses mostly on the practical aspect of topics. Therefore in my opinion, CBSE is better.
