School Leaving Certificate (Nepal)

The School Leaving Certificate, popularly abbreviated as SLC [1][2] is the final examination in the secondary school system of Nepal.[3] It is equivalent to GCSE, the academic qualification in UK. Every student must take this examination for completing the 10th grade of their study before they join higher secondary or intermediate level education. The SLC examination is normally scheduled in April to June of every year. It is known as the "iron gate" in Nepal. In reality, however, there are indeed more obstacles regarding higher-level studies after the examination.[3] Nevertheless, the SLC Examinations are the most important examination in the educational system of Nepal for building an academic career.the government has a great determination that the grade system that has been recently implemented in the SLC examination will help the country to increase the literacy rate.The SLC examination has also been affected due to the highly corrupted environment of nepal.The security system has also been worst because of ignorance by the government. The load-shedding problem of Nepal is a great problem for the SLC candidates.As a result it has been remarked that the secondary level examination system i.e SLC system should be improved for the bright future of the coming generation of the country.
