Office Of The Controller Of Examinations, Nepal A sample SLC mark-sheet issued for 1987 SLC exams. The SLC is also famous for its high profile board toppers and notorious due to several incidences of suicides committed by unsuccessful students in the aftermath of each year’s result publication. As of 2015, the Government of Nepal is planning to scrap the traditional grading system of pass-fail and different divisions and is reported to be taking an initiative to introduce a new grading system that ranks students from A to D, without a failing grade.
The examination is conducted by the Office of the Controller of Examinations, a government agency of Nepal government’s Ministry of Education. The SLC exam, also known as iron-gate due to its importance and difficulty, is indeed regarded as one of the most important and most difficult examinations in Nepal. Students obtain this qualification after completing a 10-year long secondary schooling system and participating in and passing a series of final board exams. The School Leaving Certificate ( shortly known as SLC and known in Nepali as prabeshika parikshha) is a nationally administered and monitored high-school-matriculation examination in Nepal.
